No worries, I've misinterpreted many many posts!

I brought up Buttigieg NOT as causing gas price increases, but as being stupid for saying the solution is for everyone to buy electric cars.

Many people can't afford electric cars.

Many people who can afford them, aren't good candidates to buy them, for many reasons (size, range, etc)

If everyone could afford them and could live with them, there aren't enough available.

If there were enough available, there aren't enough charging stations.

If there were enough charging stations, there isn't enough electricity.

Other than that, Pete's ideas make sense.
