re: How incredibly stupid are the Groomers? Here's an example of their collective stupidity.

I was talking to my brother a few months back who works in the electrical energy and has connections all over the state. He was telling me that people have zero idea what would need to take place for even a small state like bama to go completely green energy electric. The infrastructure to support the power usage would have to be completely overhauled from top to bottom. Transmission lines above ground and buried would have to be replaced. Transformers would all need to be replaced. You’d have to build charging stations in significant numbers to power the millions of vehicles using the roads daily. The cost would be tens of billions if not hundreds of billions. It’s simply not feasible and the energy would still have to be generated using fossil fuels because wind and solar simply cannot meet the demand.

100% agree….but even if there was a possibility of providing the electricity required for a 60-70% transition to EVs the power grid infrastructure is on the top of the preparation pyramid to make this Green energy pipe dream even remotely possible.
