Much of the industrial huge machines are electric operated though they are usually connected to a remote generator. And BTW, the petroleum industry is heavily subsidized plus we have fought wars over petroleum at huge expense and loss of life. We are not there yet, but I think as the technology develops, there is a good chance we will get there.

The goal of this is not efficiency...it is increased government control of your freedom of movement. Mudshark himself couldn’t have said it better! That tinfoil hat thing of his isn’t really just for looks.

We were energy independent. When it comes to crude we are but a lot of our refineries are not set up to handle American crude. They are set up to run on that heavy imported stuff.

If you need a really good laugh one day, just go to his profile and forum posts, it is really hard to imagine anyone that disconnected from reality. Somehow he is Tallgrass reincarnated ..... I'd love to be a fly on the wall with Donothin, Allison, Tallgrass & Emit having a discussion, imagine the crazy ideas that meeting would produce.

I'd love being able to drive an electric truck, cyber, etc. But I live in an apartment and couldn't charge it. Batteries are getting better every day. Biden will start to give apartments incentives to put in chargers. Most high end apartments already have them. It started well before Biden. Even before trump. To be fair most of the subsidies come from the state or the utility provider, not the federal level.
