Joe Biden launched a war against fossil fuels the moment he stepped foot in the White House as part of his ongoing plan to restrict movement. Last week Buttigieg told the poors to go buy electric vehicles and now he’s telling the peasants who can’t afford high gas prices to take public transportation. Public transportation isn’t available in most places in the US and it is a dangerous option for women who are traveling alone. “I hope [public transit] becomes a choice… people have good options and good affordable options to get to where they need,” Buttigieg said. “We need to make sure there is access to excellent public transportation.” Video shows enormous line of Teslas waiting to charge in Louisiana: A video showing a massive line of Tesla electric cars waiting their turn at a charging station in Louisiana is making the rounds on the internet this week. The video, posted on Facebook by Texas resident Candace Metz on Sunday, appears to show more than a dozen Tesla vehicles wrapped around a parking lot near Interstate 10 in Louisiana, just off Prien Lake, Road in Lake Charles. "Curious, I pulled over and asked the guy how long it took to charge — he said normally 30 min[utes] but these stations are running slow due to demand so it’s over an hour per car," she continued, adding, "Take a look at this line ... Each car is over an hour to charge." The next closest Supercharger station is more than 100 miles away in Alexandria, though a few less-efficient Destination Charging stations are available nearby. However, Destination chargers only provide for "up to 44 miles of range per hour charged." The video quickly garnered attention online as commenters debated whether traditional gas-powered vehicles remain more efficient than newer electric vehicles even as gas prices skyrocket across the U.S. amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine. "No thanks, I'll keep to my $5 a gallon gas!" Metz exclaimed in the video. Several commenters agreed with her sentiment, adding, "Welcome to the future of [Democrat] Green energy" and "This is what the New Green Deal Hippies want us to do!" https://www.theblaze.com/news/video-line-of-teslas-wait-to-charge OK, so how about him setting a standard and start taking public transit? I really wonder if he is planning to do it. Probably enjoys driving a nice car. The world economic forum young leaders graduate likely has his own chauffeur. :negative: This is an old news. He got caught. He drove an SUV, from his house to vicinity of his office, and got off from it then got on a bike to his office. What a hypocrite!
