Before you squawk, I’ve advocated for ending the state’s gasoline tax. Gone. I got pushback from Libertarians and Republicans, but I’m still a fan of the idea. Having said that, there is a growing siren song in some states for mileage taxes.

Rowan Atkinson: Loves EVs But Admits They’re Not That Green
We’ve said a thing or two about Electric Vehicles not being the green dream the Climate Cult promised. It is a problem they can’t escape, even if they overcome their impracticality in wide-open America, which seems unlikely. But they have their advocates, including actor Rowan Atkinson, but even he’s got concerns.
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.
Net Zero – You First!
We cannot possibly afford to commit to Net Zero, not in this lifetime, and not likely the next, even if there was a need (which there is not). Certainly, not the way they are trying to do it. So, if Democrats are going to insist on this, then they need to lead by example. You first.
Shouldn’t We Talk About Lithium Battery Fire Emissions?
Lithium batteries are dangerous. If you don’t believe me take a hazmat certification course to ship them anywhere. It’s a big deal. Lots of rules. They can’t be fully charged. Very specific packaging requirements.
Car Manufacturers Are Canceling AM Radio
Several auto manufacturers have moved to eliminate AM radios from future models, especially electronic vehicles (EVs). Automobile companies cite issues with interference on the AM band created by the vehicle’s electric motor.
The Expansion of The Tyrannical Admininstrative State is In Overdrive – Can It Be Stopped?
The 1948 Administrative Powers Act gave the Executive Branch, 75 years down the line, the Powers to be its own Government. I hate Congress for passing it and, in doing so, making itself irrelevant. Congress can’t even do their primary jobs anymore.
The Eco-Socialists That Are Trying to Horn Us Into Unaffordable EVs … Won’t Tell You This
“New cars compared to 1970 vehicle models: 99% cleaner for common pollutants. New trucks compared to 1970 vehicle models: 99% cleaner for common pollutants. So why are the climate change fanatics trying to force us to buy EVs?”
Another Electric Vehicle Fail – Even Minor Collision Damage Can Equal “Junked” Vehicle
EVs are a miserable experiment. Not green, not affordable, not efficient, and an uncontrollable fire hazard, they can cost almost 30% more to insure, and even minor damage could mean repairs exceed the vehicle’s value, so it gets scrapped.
Democrat Bill Would Tie NH to California Emission Rules (That Ban Combustion Engine Vehicles)
There aren’t enough rare earth metals for the New World Order, generation capacity, infrastructure, money to pay for it, or time to build it if we could. So, are New Hampshire Democrats stooges of villains?
“Green” Shipping Company Bans EVs to Protect Passengers, Freight, and Crew …
A Norwegian ferry company that moves people, vehicles, mail, and other freight up and around northern Norway has decided it must ban any and all Electric Vehicles from its ships.
Wyoming’s Idea of Net-Zero: Phase Out All New EV Auto Sales by 2035
The Left’s Net-Zero mission translates to a net-zero lifestyle. A plan that adds millions of electric mouths to feed but contains no viable way to meet increased demand. Some legislators in Wyoming have found it lacking and are pushing back.
Here’s an Idea for the IRS – Stop Giving Rich People Tax Credits to Buy EV’s
Electric Vehicles are expensive and not green, but an even bigger insult is the taxpayer-backed incentives to get one. EV buyers are high-income earners, which makes them high-income emitters looking to buy a bit of virtue signaling.
Another Electric Vehicle Fail: NYC EV Trucks Run Out of Juice Plowing the Streets
New York City uses its garbage trucks to plow snow. The Big Crapple is also hot to electrify the entire fleet, and why not? Who should be more climate #woke than the city that never sleeps? But someone is having nightmares after discovering the two are incompatible—electric trucks and plowing snow.
Consumer Reports: EV’s are Some of the Most Unreliable Vehicles Sold In America
Electric vehicles are to modern America what hair regrowth tonics were in the 18th century. Piss with ink. EVs are a lie wrapped in shadows and penumbras of wishes and dreams without grounding in reality. They are worse for the environment, a terrible transportation choice, and not even Consumer Reports can’t hide that fact.
EVs/Solar/Wind Are Devastating To The Environment
Under the pretext of stopping man-made “climate change,” the globalists/corporatists/communists are devastating the environment AND arguably using more fossil fuels upstream…
Massachusetts and Vermont Poised to Adopt California’s EV Only Mandate and That’s Bad for New Hampshire
To borrow from Forrest Gump, stupid is as stupid does, but that’s not all there is to say about California’s Vehicle emissions standards or why Vermont and Massachusetts (along with 15 other states) are poised to adopt them and an Electric Vehicle mandate.
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.
My Reasons for Not Purchasing an Electric Vehicle
Here’s how I figure the costs of owning electric vehicles (EVs) that they are pushing on us. The present cost of gasoline doesn’t even figure into the calculation.
More Bad News for EVs – You Pay Up to An Extra 13% for Electrical “Waste” with Every “Fill Up”
An auto club in Germany that claims 21 million members ran some controlled charging test electric vehicles to see how efficient that process was. The results put another nail in the value coffin. Not only are they expensive to buy and own, but the average charge also wastes up to 13% of the electricity.
