So I have read several articles about the U.S. should expect rolling blackouts this summer.  So how is we are supposed to charge all these electric cars/tucks/busses when we can't even provide AC in the summer with whoever is in charge in WH?  I need one of the liberals to post and explain to me cuz I'm just a dumb redneck.  I am sure that these few liberals we have, that like to consider themselves intellectuals, can explain in easy terms how we can add more to a grid that apparently can't even handle AC in summer.

Last I heard they were planning to put wind mills on top of the cars so that they would charge themselves - sadly the 30+ foot blades just drag the ground and hit overpasses and power lines that will thankfully not be live at the time since there will be no power anywhere.

Answer for the electric car, liberal idiots is very simple.  Require the car manufacturers to put solar panels all over the top of the electric car, and have no charging cord for plug in.  Sun shining….you have energy, cloudy or nighttime….sit in your car and wait till solar panels charge ya up.  Otherwise, screw the electric car lover!!

Too bad, we are unable to have a discussion that doesn't morph into gotcha responses.

 I guess there could be an intellectual discussion except yours would start with ...but if it weren't for DJT we wouldn't be in this situation.  Just saying!

Their strategy is to also make sure we have gas shortages along with rolling blackout......remember, they believe in everyone being equal....equally miserable.  Solar and wind are unreliable alternate sources of energy but the govt is hell bent on forcing us to use more and more of it despite all the negative consequences.  Even energy rich states have forced public utilities to have a certain percentage of their energy from alternate sources that are "green"......which usually means non-carbon based and non nuclear.

Time will tell whether electric car battery technology progresses to the point that it can compete with carbon but if you look at the energy used to mine the raw materials, refine them and manufacture the batteries it is not very good for the environment...at all.  All due to the incorrect belief that CO2 causes whatever weather we experience.
