[QUOTE="gonefshn, post: 315659, member: 380"] I have no problem moving to electric vehicles and look forward to it. WHEN WE'RE READY!!! But, first of all: 1. Battery storage needs to improve. Which it is, but it still has a long ways to go. 2. We need an electrical grid that can actually stand up to not only the current demands but also the demands of shifting to electric cars. How the hell can we add cars to the mix when we can't even handle just plain old life? 3. Approve the pipelines we need for the interim to insure an adequate supply of energy until we can reach the point that we need less and even then it's not just cars that use the oil from these pipelines. 30% is used for purposes other than transportation so there will still be this need. How about instead of demanding cars become electric and moving everything to renewables we first do some planning and some infrastructure updates/modifications/replacements? To pay for it increase taxes some on companies and replace those increases with possible decreases thru tax credits for building new plants and other investments in our country's future. Then those companies that invest HERE get the tax breaks and those that don't invest in our country can pay more and assist in the cost of the tax breaks we give those companies that do believe in our country and invest in it.
