Of course you will also need an internal combustion engine car for long trips. But if John Kerry can make the sacrifice of having multiple jets to fly to climate conferences, the least the poor can do is buy multiple cars.
These left wing nut jobs are so elitist.
I’m a big fan of EVs and I do want them to become the dominant mode of automobile transportation in the future.
But they are completely tone deaf to the realities of the working poor and the lower middle class proletariat. The majority of these two classes cannot simply go out and buy a brand new forty thousand dollar car of any kind. The majority drive five to ten year old vehicles that they either bought in cash after saving or took out short loans to pay off as quickly as they can.
They pay at most 15,000 dollars for their vehicles, and that’s only the low middle class. The working poor can sacrifice at most 5000 dollars for a vehicle.
The only people who can buy a brand new vehicle at any time they wish are those who can already afford the risen cost of fuel. 5 dollars per gallon hits the proletariat far more harshly than someone in the upper middle class or higher.
The elitists want to push EVs. And trust me, I want to see EVs continue to improve and grow as well. But they do not understand that this transition cannot happen overnight. It will take many years.
They need to be more empathetic. They need to actually get around the working poor and lower middle class proletariat and actually observe how they live. We (as I classify myself as lower middle class proletariat) cannot simply go throw forty grand down on a vehicle in one day. I saved for five years to put a big down payment on my 2018 Civic Si I bought brand new. So that I could have lower notes that was comfortably affordable for me. And the only reason I was able to justify it was that I have no children and my cost of living for necessities as a bachelor is extremely low.
Most people in my class have families. The cost dynamic is extremely different for them. And these elitist swine don’t give a ■■■■ about them.

I saw a Bentley convertible in the parents pickup line at a middle school in Boca Raton today. For ■■■■■ and giggles I looked up the cost; $302K.
The middle class is under siege. “Boodeyjudge” and Fweedom are ■■■■■■■ ■■■■■■■■■

Oil and gas embargo against Russia isn’t going to do a damn thing except hurt middle and lower income working people. But again it’s been a proven fact that libs don’t care about em anymore. They found their votes without em.

I didn’t do anything.
And for those who are paying the price it is those who are right now getting shelled and bombed and killed because Putin wants to reunify the Russian empire.
Seriously.
Get over yourself.

So it’s to punish Russia?
It’s our Patriotic Duty to pay out the ass for fuel and electricity in order to combat the Russian Threat to Ukraine.

I’m just wondering how shutting down Russian oil production by not buying it is hurting Russia, while shutting down American oil production by closing leases and pipelines isn’t hurting America?
