The acronym E.D., which I have long referred to as Electile Dysfunction – the inability to overcome any number of voting-related irregularities needed to elect good candidates, is more commonly associated with erectile dysfunction, and to be honest, that almost seems like the same problem.
Whatever it is, you can’t get it up or keep it up. Solving this problem is big business. Sectors of the economy have devoted themselves to the project. Email marketers have a field day coming up with subject lines that will get men (and maybe women) to open themselves to whatever possibilities lay inside.
You’re not a man if you can’t (you know), but we’re here with a sure-fire solution that will get you back in the saddle overnight—a money-back guarantee. No salesman will call.
Did you know there is a similar anxiety among electric vehicle owners? A majority of them, having spent large sums (even after taxpayer-backed incentives and bailouts) to acquire these forms of transportation, are anxious about whether they’ll be able to find a place to charge them.
More than 90% drivers worldwide report feeling “anxious” about finding somewhere to charge away from home, according to a survey of 5,454 motorists worldwide, including 2,225 BEV owners conducted by Parkopedia. …
Other key findings of the survey: 44% of BEV drivers have reported that they have run out of charge and 22% found themselves stranded multiple times. Globally, 92% of BEV drivers flagged how they struggled to locate charging points away from home.
And there we have the answer. You’re not supposed to leave home. Your Electric Vehicle is meant to sit in your driveway (assuming you’ve paid your rain tax) as an ornament or monument to the revolution. A world where behavior is manipulated toward dead ends. You bought this costly thing, and we’ll assume that made you feel good about how (you thought) other people would feel when they saw what you did. But using it was prohibitive before you bought in, and I can’t think of a better metaphor for Democrat rule.
A big shiny thing full of promise that, in reality, will become an impractical anchor on your freedom. You bought a boat in the middle of a desert, and the cure for this is not to make other people pay to bring in water. Trade in the boat for a camel. It’s the sort of thinking that might help solve a few other problems, as well.
