Ninety miles from the South Eastern tip of the United States, Liberty has no stead. In order for Liberty to exist and thrive, Tyranny must be identified, recognized, confronted and extinguished.

Electric Cars?
We Do Not Currently Have The Electrical Infrastructure To Charge Cars For Every Household.
We Would Need To Build More Electricity Plants. Solar And Wind Won't Cut It. Start Digging That Coal...
It's not just where is all that new electricity going to come from (production facilities), but how are you going to get it to your car (distribution channels).
Currently the U.S. uses 145 billion gallons of gas a year, and we use 3.8 trillion kWh of electricity. Wikipedia says that a gallon of gas is equal to 33.4 kWh, so if all vehicles used electricity instead of gas we're going to need another 4.8 trillion kWh of electricity. Production would have to increase by 127% (227% of what we currently do). California is already burning down its forests because the power lines are over-loaded, just how do they propose doubling that transmission load.
Yeah and add in the hectacres of destroyed habitat necessary for the solar panels/ windfarms required to generate even a modicum of the required juice.
