Buttigieg Says the Solution to High Gas Prices Is Simple: Just Buy an EV
There are so many things wrong with this statement that it would take pages of text to parse, deconstruct, and debunk each of the underlying assumptions built into the statement.
This is a statement by a top government official. They will use high gas prices that resulted from their own policies and were subsequently exacerbated by international affairs to push Americans to buy electric vehicles. They have not evaluated the energy grid requirements to satisfy electric vehicles on a national basis, or charging station construction, or other issues related to this short-sighted decision. Combine this with their irrational push for green energy in the form of solar and wind, and very quickly the price of energy will skyrocket, shortages will develop, blackouts will occur, low-income folks will bear the brunt of these bad decisions.
They think the public is stupid. They think you are stupid.
Democrats.
Vote for Democrats and this is what you will get.

the important thing is that we stop replacing US oil production with Russian imports, and start replacing US oil production with Iranian imports
