    • Everything is going to be different in 10 years and of course battery technology will continue to get better but here is where EVs have to get to for the average American to get on board, including myself. 1.  Purchase prices less than ICE equivalents.  That means starting at $20K in todays prices and cheap Chinese made EV shit-boxes that self combust do not count. 2.  Better range than ICE equivalents which means at least 450 ACTUAL miles of 75MPH highway driving even in our cold weather. 3.  Charging ports as readily available as gas pumps are today with zero waiting and availability so that there is no waiting in line and reliable enough that they are not constantly down. 4.  Charge times of less than 10 minutes. 5.  Ability to have a damaged or defective battery pack replaced for less than $5K. If all of these things are a reality in 10 years that would be super.  If not, ICE engines are going to be around for many decades to come.  
    • good footage, interesting to see how people's lines vary and hear they're braking points.    
    • Me too. While they claim people are living longer, it doesn’t mean people are remaining capable longer. 
    • The current crop of reprobates (with none of the humor of that word) gleefully break their own rules, lots of laws, and then create carve-outs in those laws so that they can behave differently than the people they claim to represent. For instance, Congress may buy and sell stocks based on what is called "Material Non-Public Information" (MNPI). You can't. Nobody except Congress can. You will go to jail if you do it! The federal government's financial enforcement arm (the SEC) sends people to jail every year for that sort of stuff, and they fine a lot more. That's how a conniving mid-wit like Nancy Pelosi can be fabulously wealthy (net worth of more than $240,000,000) on a salary of $200k/year. There is a secret slush fund used by Congress to pay off the people whom they sexually harass and sexually assault. Wouldn't you like to know where that money has gone, and for whom? My guess is that there are also plenty of auto accident injuries that were hushed up, and probably a bunch of DUIs in that mix. And even when our representatives aren't committing felonies, they are behaving like entitled asses. They park where they want. They behave abominably at public restaurants. They sneer at their constituents. They are contemptuous of the people who pay for their obscene junkets to fascinating places. Anyone want to bet against me when I suggest that there are probably a dozen members of Congress in London or Paris or Prague on "official business," conveniently scheduled to correspond with Christmas shopping? Let's start holding our representatives to some minimum standard of conduct. Let us demand that they behave as if they are in our business, working for us. Because that is exactly what they are doing. I am being optimistic in the extreme when I hope for a shift away from an imperial government. It won't happen absent a fundamental upheaval in our society. But we can demand some propriety from these people. Matt Gaetz probably didn't have sex with a 17-year old girl, but does anyone doubt that he boasted of his conquests, and behaved like a high school boy? Term limits are problematic in a free society, but I see no other way to limit -- even slightly -- the sense of entitlement and the disconnect between our representatives and us. "Throw The Bums Out" should be reflexive! Make them prove that they deserve our trust by not behaving like they are royalty! https://cutjibnewsletter.com/
