Kentucky republican House member Thomas Massie had some interesting statistics in hand when questioning Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg about the administration goal to make electric vehicles 50% of all cars, vans and trucks sold by 2030.
An electric vehicle requires five times as much energy production as the standard home air conditioning cost.
The U.S. electricity grid cannot support an increase in household energy use that is equivalent of adding five times as many houses using air conditioning.
The likely federal government solution is simple.
Comrade citizens can have one electric car, or they can have their home air conditioned, but they cannot have both.
"The significant problems we face are only as challenging as the significance of the problem."
