President Joe Biden is taking fresh steps to help keep gas prices from climbing. For Republicans to see this as “disgusting” and “disgraceful” is bizarre.

We are being devastated by the higher gas prices. People don’t have the money nor the infrastructure is given to move to EV. Even if one does have money for EV, charging stations are extremely rare and you WILL find yourself stranded if you attempt any long drive unless you have a “old” combustion engine car or an hybrid both affected by the higher prices.
You don’t want higher prices on gas with 0 attempt to actually make EV viable, trust me.
The “extreme” rarity you claim for charging stations is a myth, possibly propagated by the petrol industry. Plugshare offers accurate information regarding the location of charging stations (https://www.plugshare.com/). And the cool thing about that is there are both commercial and home/ office stations, with more coming online all the time. It’s kinda good that EM bobbled the supercharger thing, so it encourages more groups to start providing chargers. The great thing about Plugshare and ABRP (abetterrouteplanner.com/) is that it makes it very easy to see and plan for your next charge. Tho’ I do agree that the way to go is make the E-charging cheaper, not to make the petrol more expensive, yet.
Thanks for showing me where I live there is a singular small gas station within multiple kilometers with a couple EV charging stations 😂 I only find many if I go to a bigger city. In fact I do see them when I go to the city, and always empty.
E-charging is even more expensive then petrol here, so even hybrids that can charge people that own then never do so as going with just petrol is so much cheaper for how it lasts on the road.
I hate to tell you most people aren’t traveling more than 300 miles a day and most ev have ranges in excess of that.
Your trying to poke holes in Swiss cheese and claim it’s less tasty because of it.
