i don't think you understand the limits of Physics as it relates to storing energy in a solid state.
Oh, I'm not an expert at all, I have no illusions about that. I know fuck all about electric engines.

But I do know that all the major car companies are running full speed towards them, and that the current richest man in the world got that way because he went all in on them huge and early. And now the entire auto industry is playing catchup, because they perceive it as an existential threat.

Which adds up to maybe the government should do something to encourage and prepare for this massive transformation, rather than just continue being corrupt denialists like the GOP is about every single thing, for decades.

Again, I don't lay claim to knowing fuck all about the state of the game electric battery wise. ?

From the guy who brought you, "southerners aren't racist," here are some more gems:

- New Yorkers aren't rude

- The Midwest isn't boring

- Canadians aren't polite

- Deep South states aren't morbidly obese

none of that is true. The companies aren't running fuel speed to electric, they're doing just enough to get the maximum federal susbidies for their electric car programs.

Tesla is a fake car company, and Elon Musk got rich from his parents chopping arms of a little black kids in Africa and throwing that money all over Silicon Valley until something hit. Now he's in the same "gov't welfare" business as Bezos.

What's a nationwide install of electric charging stations got to do with every major car manufacturer announcing that they plan to be out of the fossil fuel engine business entirely two decades from now?

Seriously?

??
Yeah. Seriously.
They aren't needed yet. It's an entirely different dynamic that hasn't been sorted.

It takes a long time to charge these cars. It's not like a 3 minute stop at a gas station. Charging stations will need to be placed at grocery stores or restaurants where visits are already expected to take 20 minutes or so.

Unless - you know - technology advances and they develop a way to charge these cars quickly - then it changes.

They are putting the cart in front of the horse.

they can thank the Joe Biden wing of the Democratic party for that.
You are just programmed to reflexively hate, aren't you.

Joe Biden is a vicious racist? Fuck outta here with that stupid shit. I don't think the guy should be anywhere near the Oval Office, but he's had half a century of being acknowledged by pretty much everyone as the nicest guy in any room in Washington. He's built his entire career on being a friendly and approachable guy, ffs.

"The Joe Biden wing" of the Democrat party are centre right ambitious corporatists. Apparently you prefer far right extremists. Fine, but why the need for these constant lies, all the time?

Okay, whatever. Musk has never done anything in his life, and Tesla isn't real and hasn't impacted anything. Good chat. ?✌

no, he built his entire career on attacking Republicans for being soft on crime and not Pro-Business enough.

Fine, say I give you all that.

Now what is the alternative on offer? What did the Republicans put on the table the last four years? What are your criticisms there?

Musk is scumbag.

We could power the Earth for generations if we could harness the energy of Nikolai spinning in his grave since Musk used his name.
Nothing Tesla has done has been particularly relevant to the advancements of AEV.

Right.

A centre right corporatist, trying to look tough on crime and disassociate himself from the actual leftists in the party.

Hauler @Hauler : Hey John, you got the score of the football game?

John Lee Pettimore @John Lee Pettimore : It's 24-10. But don't let that get in the way of your bullshit trickle down billionaire-loving GOP party who literally - LITERALLY - have no respect for democracy!

Hauler @Hauler : Uh...Thanks?

That is literally who Joe Biden has been for 40+ years in public service.

Delaware is the roadmap for corporate tax haven.

Well, you're ripping shit out of this infrastructure bill. Clearly you hate and fear the Democrats. Okay, fair enough. But the reality is, you only have one other option. Care to present any kind of case at all that the only other option is any better? Or even that it's not much, much worse?

there is no alternative from either side in substance, only in packaging.

Yes.

Nobody feels a need to make excuses for Joe Biden's corporatist bullshit, understand?

Why not offer reality-based criticisms of him, instead of stupid chants pretending like he's David Duke?

I'm reading through the bill to see what all is in it. A foreign concept to some. I do it for all major bills regardless of who is in charge.

For the most part, it looks OK so far. But it's the hidden gems DC likes to ride through on these things that everyone needs to be concerned about.
