No Plan in Place for Gas to EV Conversion
You expect the government to be dysfunctional, but how they are trying to force America to Electric Vehicles is setting a new low in long-range thinking.

Bank Australia Decides That Only Rich People Should Be Able to Drive New Vehicles
If Western-Style Democracy is swirling the bowl, Australia is the largest turd about to go ’round the bend, if you take my meaning.

More Bad News For Electric Vehicles (Truck Edition)
Electric Vehicles (EVs) suck. To review, they are dirty to build (not green), dirty to run (not green), are more likely to fail, are far too expensive, and inadequate to almost any task not suited to a golf cart (which is a lot cheaper), and now we’ve got more bad news.

Irony Alert: Economy “Created” to Sell EVs is Making Them More Expensive to Drive than Combustion Engine Vehicles
Democrats are economic illiterates. It’s the only explanation why so many believe an economy they planned wouldn’t be a total disaster. Take energy. They made oil prices rise to make Electric Vehicles competitive before they had the grid bandwidth to charge them.
Does Anyone Have a Plan for Electric Vehicles?
I do not want one and will fight tooth and nail before being forced into one. We have two full-size SUVs and one Class C Motor Home. We pull a boat with one vehicle, and the other transports many golfers and their clubs/carts. The usage makes a full-size a necessity for both.
EU Working Hard to Make Electric Vehicles Even More Expensive

Coal Powered Car Pride Month?
US Senator Debbie Stabenow (D) has pride. Not ‘cuz it’s June. Well, she’s probably doing that rainbow thing, but we’re talking about EVs. In recent remarks, she gushed about how gas prices meant nothing to her as she tootled along in her electric vehicle.
Biden Issues Order to Ban Automobiles
Joe Biden will issue an Executive Order banning all gas and electric automobiles and will issue free Electric Bikes to replace them. Okay, so that is a parody and carries a lot of satire, but I am just following the logic Biden uses with increasing crime.

Biden Can’t ‘Tap’ America’s Strategic Lithium Reserves …
The US has gobs of fossil fuels and one of the cleanest extraction processes on the planet. But the more environmentally sound practice for Dems is to get it offshore and move it here while we wait for the Electric Vehicle Golden Age to dawn.
This Zero Emission Plan Doesn’t Zero Squat – It Offshores the Emissions to Other Countries
We are surrounded by idiots inspired by morons like those running California. Climate dolts who have embraced a chain of lies whose solution is the Climate Cult equivalent of dumping western garbage on third-world countries.
DISQUS Doodlings – I Stand Alone
GraniteGrok is about Freedom and Liberty, and we are ALWAYS advocating for Freedom and Liberty. After all, the other side is ALWAYS in Missionary mode to have Government “do” more and that you and I need to “let go” of those freedoms (e.g., Fauci, who just said that we shouldn’t be so concerned with it).
California – Buy An Electric Car, They Said, But Don’t Charge it – There’s Not Enough Juice!
The Left coast is obsessed with greening the grid and mandating electric vehicles, neither of which is compatible with the other, the promised goals, or life in America. It is a problem.
Is Vermont’s Zero Emissions Strategy Worse for the Environment Than Doing Nothing?
Vermont Governor Phil Scott (D – Registered as a Republican) has an announcement. He is appeasing the idiot Left by “joining 15 states and the District of Columbia in a push to electrify buses and trucks.” Electric shock therapy might be better because these vehicles are worse for emissions, not better.
A Career Progressive Brings Bad News – There is no ‘Green’ in Electric Vehicles
One of the keystones of the green energy fantasy has been to shift transportation away from combustion to electric-powered vehicles.
