The Democrats Are Trying to Hide a Very Dirty Secret About Electric Cars<\/a><\/p>\n

The Left views electric cars like the Rings of Power. It\u2019s predictable but also pathetic. Driving electric cars saves the environment, says the left-wing drone. It emits next to nothing regarding carbon emissions, except that it does. Do liberals think we don\u2019t know that this whole fad is a con game? Where do you think the energy that powers the batteries comes from? Fairies? Electric cars aren\u2019t as efficient as gas-powered vehicles, but you pay more because\u2026of feelings. Screw that. Green energy is a backdoor to communism from greenies who talk more about controlling the means of production than saving Mother Earth. Clean energy is a grift and political crony project aimed at giving fat cat donors tax breaks. Solyndra forever ruined this industry. I don\u2019t care what anyone says, it\u2019s all a long miserable exercise in subsidizing sub-par products.<\/p>\n

Coal is what powers your electric car. Do liberals even know that? The very people who mock states like West Virginia don\u2019t seem to know that these areas allow them to drive their precious, overpriced electric cars (via\u00a0The Federalist<\/a>):<\/p>\n

To advance their climate agenda and deflect backlash about rising gas prices, Democrats are telling Americans that driving electric cars is for the greater good of the environment, fully knowing the charging stations for these cars are not fossil fuel free.<\/p>\n

In reality, one of Tesla\u2019s Supercharger stations was reported to get 13 percent of their energy from natural gas and 27 percent from coal. Power plants burn coal to generate electricity to power electric cars and emit a higher fossil fuel footprint than the left would care to admit.<\/p>\n

While these vehicles may be falsely advertised, many who invest in these overpriced cars are able to avoid paying the currently outrageous gas prices. Still, Americans\u2019 growing reliance on electric cars and the batteries they require will increase our dependence on countries such as China for materials.<\/p>\n

\u201cChinese companies, particularly CATL, have secured vast supplies of the raw materials that go inside the batteries,\u201d The New York Times reported in December. \u201cThat dominance has stirred fears in Washington that Detroit could someday be rendered obsolete, and that Beijing could control American driving in the 21st century the way that oil-producing nations sometimes could in the 20th.\u201d<\/p>\n

By increasing our use of electric cars, the United States will require more lithium batteries and will further rely on China to sustain our supply.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, isn\u2019t that peachy. Liberals seem to have the yellow fever when it comes to China, or at least they\u2019re a bit kinky when it comes to their wanting to be dominated by this country. Gas prices began to soar when Joe Biden took a hatchet to the Keystone Pipeline and our own oil and gas industry. That\u2019s just a fact.<\/p>\n

With the Ukraine war raging now, and sanctions being slapped on Russia for their invasion, the line the Biden White House is selling right now is \u2018if you worried about $8\/gallon for gas, you should buy a\u2026$50k+ electric car.\u2019 It\u2019s almost too good to be true. You cannot make it up. The Democrats\u2019 plan to ease gas price pain for a large swath of Americans is to force them to buy vehicles they can\u2019t afford. A part of that is due to liberals being idiots. The other part is that it shows how the Democratic Party doesn\u2019t know working people anymore. It\u2019s all urban-based, rich, over-educated, and very white people making these snide remarks. The professional Left is the Democratic Party\u2014and these people view those who drive pick-up trucks as neo-Nazis.<\/p>\n

The dirty little secret is that a lot of fossil fuels are used to power the liberal delusions behind their electric car fetish. The Federalist did a great job sifting through the nonsense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
