Government’s Shove to EVs IS About Control – Controlling Us

Republicans are more prone to advocate for Free Markets, Libertarians more so, and Democrats not at all. Yes, Republicans are sometimes better than Democrats, but they always seem to want Government to have a hand in things. That we are not able to decide for ourselves.

They say the right things but turn around and do the wrong things.

Most of us know that the Biden Administration (all of the Leftists, Eco-Socialists, and outright Communists) believe that they have the Neo-Right-of-Kings to rule us all. Not govern, not be representatives, but rulers. Especially the unaccountable minions at the EPA that are dishing out regulation after regulation that has one aim:

Make the rest of us miserable.

What rulings or regulations has HELPED us and made Government leave us alone?  None that I can see – if we use something in our everyday lives (cars, appliances), they are working hard to make them work worse and be more expensive (hey, will you like going back to handwashing all your dishes??  It’s “community-building force on you and your spouse – just thank Government for the opportunities they are “giving” you).

In this, Katie Pavlich at Townhall has the right of it. These bureaucratic tyrants use the euphemism of “Electrify Everything to save the Planet” as cover for their plans for us and that includes the phasing out of one of the most important freedom inventions ever – the gas-powered car (emphasis mine):

Civilization will crumble without oil and gas, so why are the Biden administration and their globalist, elite allies trying to accelerate the collapse? If U.S. infrastructure isn’t capable of handling the switch to electric, and Americans can’t afford to buy electric cars, how is this new and alternative utopia going to come to fruition?

To critically thinking people, these facts don’t logically add up to a good faith effort to save the environment. Instead, it raises red flags about the true intention of the rapid shift. This is especially true given those who are pushing the shift most aggressively. John Kerry and Bill Gates, for example, aren’t changing their own habits of private jet use, SUVs and luxury, living in mansions or ornate government buildings. So what’s going on here?

Catastrophes enable government control. Look no further than the recent COVID-19 pandemic, which was extended for years by bureaucrats and politicians interested in exercising power over the population as long as possible, for proof. The coming government-inflicted mobility crisis will be similar to the pandemic response, with directives about who can work, when, how long, where they can travel, whether you really need to travel to church and much more. A lack of gas-powered vehicles means forced reliance on public transportation. It will cripple life in rural America, forcing moves into the cities. Social credit scores regarding travel, like the ones we’re already seeing when purchasing airline tickets, will certainly be implemented.

The government-mandated move to electric vehicles has nothing to do with the environment and everything to do with the left’s vision for America: tyrannical government control. Time will tell if the country is willing to go along with it.

Electing Democrats will keep their accelerator pedal aimed towards that goal. Loser Republicans just don’t press down as hard thinking that they can “manage it better” but we still end up in the same place.

2024 will be here soon even as the Presidential Campaigns are moving into their second phase (scooping up money, endorsements, staff, and volunteers). Uppermost in our minds should be this: WHICH Republican candidate has that gleam in the eye and the fire in the belly to take on the Deep State for REAL?

SCOTUS has been issuing decisions that are driving the Left to manic proportions as rulings are slapping down overreach and more overreach by the Federal bureaucracy (I’m looking at you, EPA). Which candidate will be best suited to put on that flameproof, bombproof, scandal proof, and “stare them down” visor in your opinion? If no clue for names, go here.

Right now, top three for me are Trump, DeSantis, and…..Ramaswamy (my dark horse candidate). First two have track records while Vivek is saying all the right things the Base wants to hear (implementation, however?).
