“Energy Secretary” Laughs Hysterically When Asked About Rising Gas Prices…

 

[Champakian]

The Green Goal is to make it too expensive to drive a car.

 

[AlterErgo]

Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm addressed the rising cost of gasoline yesterday in a Bloomberg interview (video below). Is there anything to be done? “That is hilarious,” she said and showed just how funny she found it. She seems to have taken a lesson or two from Kamala Harris in the department of fake laughter.

People who are intellectually deficient tend to think everything is funny

That's funny.

 

[bellisarius]

"The price of gas is too high. The poor can't afford to drive."

"Let them buy EV's"

"So they can't afford their electric bill?"

Dumb bitch.

I'm all for EVs for fleet use and city people. But if you are driving any distance, how long does it take to charge up? If there are x number of charging stations, you have to wait for however long for your turn, then stand there for what... half an hour?

All that money for charging stations... is it going to be given to exxon to put plugs at their service stations?

 

[Champakian]

I think the more woke you are,
the dumber you sound.

It's a willing suspension of common sense.

Mugging stations.

 

[Champakian]

They installed charging stations way out in the parking lot of the local grocery store.

I have yet to see them being used...

 

[JohnnySavage]

Like bike lanes.

 

[JohnnySavage]

Do you have to pay to use them?

My neighbor has a Tesla, but I've never talked to him about it. It's a girly car.

 

[Champakian]

Same here.

They do make a good place to put the snow when they plow...

 

[Champakian]

Do you have to pay to use them?

I would assume so. I know the grocery has a produce section,
but I don't think at their low profit margin,
that they are all that green...

 

[JohnnySavage]

I may have to investigate. I pay 11 cents a kwh at home. I wonder how those charging stations are metered.

 

[Champakian]

If I had an electric car, I'd care...

 

[JohnnySavage]

I thirst for knowledge.

 

[bellisarius]

Below is the way to go.

Fuel Cell

A "fill up" takes no longer than it does to fill up with gas. The problem is the same as with the charging stations, building out the infrastructure.

When ever someone starts yapping about EV's and the government mandating them I just imagine a city like LA and everyone coming home from work in the evening, plugging in their EV and the entire power grid going up in smoke. Or running out of juice somewhere, hitching a ride to the nearest charging station, and going back to your car with a bucket of electricity.

 

[Champakian]

"Bucket of electricity" is a new Lit classic.

 

[JohnnySavage]

Charging an electric car can be done at home or at any public charging stations. Fully charging a car can be done in just 30 minutes, or it may take as long as half a day. How big your battery is, or how fast your charging point is may change the time required.


For example, with a monthly membership fee, one charging station network still charges $1.50/hour for level 2 charging. The average time of the charge for an electric vehicle on a level 2 system is about seven hours for a full charge. This means that a full charge with this charging network would cost you $11.Nov 12, 2019

All of which is impractical for Americans who have to travel long distances by car.

What is the actual legal authority the Biden administration plans to use in order to shut this pipeline down?

You're going to pay a lot more than 11 cents per kwh. The government is already devising ways to recover the $$$ they aren't getting from the gas tax on EVs.

Yup, mileage trackers on every vehicle is one of the proposed initiatives.
