Biden tweeted today that the upside of inflation is switch to green energy
don’t tell me the left doesn’t want this inflation to incentivize the switch, which it won’t do because we don’t have anywhere near the electricity.

Jim where’s the Tweet?
Even at Fox
President Biden faced backlash after appearing to suggest that high gas prices will be a "good" opportunity to make a fundamental turn" to clean energy on Monday.
Appearing to suggest
Yep making stuff up shocking

Jim here’s a history lesson after the oil crisis in the 70s
The Energy Crisis Spurs Demand for Small Cars...
https://www.nytimes.com/1974/04/07/a...a-passing.html
The article is from 1972
So considering this crisis my give a nudge to the EV for conservatives is outrageous!
You’re outraged 24x7 the GOP is playing you

there’s very very little
silver lining to what inflation is doing to people middle class and below. the average american family is spending an extra $400+ a month thanks to inflation.
we have absolutely no infastructure to support a meaningful
shift to electric cars. i keep
asking you where that additional electricity is going to
come from, i haven’t seen you respond. If you did, I’m
sorry, but it sure looks like you’re dodging.
We are facing blackouts currently, because we don’t have enough electricity to meet today’s demand. Where do we get tons of additional
electricity?
You ok with nuclear plants? that’s the obvious answer.

In Jim’s world electric cars are going to collapse the electrical grid
But in reality climate change has been doing it for decades
I guess you haven’t read about the current heat dome across the mid west
And ACs running 24x7. In June nothing to see

when demand exceeds available supply, that’s not good.
you dwell in the land of fantasy and ideology, not facts. I like electric cars. it we don’t have the infastructure yet.

wayne, there’s talk of blackouts this summer, and the reason is that we can’t keep up with current demand.
if we all had electric cars, doesn’t demand increase a lot?
If we can’t meet today’s demand, how do we meet tomorrow’s ( higher) demand?
https://www.cnet.com/google-amp/news...ow-to-prepare/
we need a lot more electricity, and electric cars need 350 miles of range and the ability to recharge in an hour. THEN they work for almost everyone. Today, they don’t work for many, many people.
The F150 lightning you mentioned, has a range of 120 miles when towing ( a little more of you fork over another $10k for higher range). You don’t think that limits its practicality?

Jim yes there’s talk and it because what I said
Some troubling news as we inch towards summer - parts of the U.S. power grid face high risks of outages. A new grid reliability report shows that places in the Midwest, California and Texas may not have enough power as temperatures rise and residents crank up air conditioners.
And the western drought is causing reduction in hydroelectric production
And I tow my boat never over 120 mile so it would work for me.
And I’ve said electric doesn’t work for everyone
And infrastructure takes time . Thank goodness we got a infrastructure bill might not fix everything but it’s something

So Jim’s claiming that electric automobiles won’t work, sort of like Texas - Who can’t figure out how to get water or power to work but they’re ready to secede.
Nobody expects 100% of vehicles to be electric tomorrow, just more than today.

Google is easy
For US drivers who cover about 37 miles per day on average, a charger that delivers 20-30 miles of range per hour charged is ideal (6.6-10 kW power delivery). Average daily miles are recharged within 2 hours and even a close-to-empty 100 kWh battery can be charged fully overnight. For the vast majority of homes, charging at those speeds will not require major electrical service upgrades to 400 amps. Tesla drivers don’t need to worry about forgetting to charge. In a pinch, there are Superchargers.

for the 35th time, where’s the additional electricity going to come from?
i also say it’s going to take time, and you go crazy when i say it.
does the infastructure bull include construction of new nuclear power plants?

1. It’s not a tweet
2. It was a response to a reporter saying “recession is inevitable”
3. Biden’s retort was: "My mother had an expression: out of everything lousy, something good will happen. We have a chance to make a fundamental turn toward renewable energy, electric vehicles, and across the board."

This is part of Jim’s reading problem. Biden didn’t tweet anything.
