The Great Electric Vehicle Con

[Tell It Right]

As an EV owner I'm every now and then on a couple of EV forums swapping tips on optimizing our EV performance and such. Of course, those forums have more leftists than a Stacey Abrams meal has calories. LOL

One thing I push is that even if I can't convince them to quit voting Dim, can they at least convince their Dim leaders to allow mining and processing "rare earths" that are available in the U.S.? They wouldn't be so "rare" if we utilize what's available here. Look at all the cobalt in Minnesota -- if we tapped it we wouldn't be dependent on slave labor in the Congo for cobalt. We ought to drill baby drill for oil and natural gas, and mine baby mine for coal and lithium and cobalt and nickel and everything else.

But the Dims that try to force us to EV's and away from oil and natural gas are the same Dims who limit our access to minerals that would have the best chance of making their polices actually work. Evidently the Dims don't truly want us to "transition" to their fantasy energy world. They're trying to control us.
