You need like 50 solar panels to charge a vehicle. Thats like a $60K installation - you can buy 50 years of gasoline or electricity for that price. And homes only have a single utility going to their house so no redundancy while gas stations are everywhere and most new ones have Generac backup generators so you never have to worry about fueling.

On PAPER they are better. But it comes down to money and options. EVs cost much more for the same exact vehicle. For example I can get a fully loaded Honda Ridgeline for $45K but there is no comparable EV for under $80K. Same with Honda Pilot. Also people want buttons and switches they really do not want everything in a large touchscreen that takes focus off the road. Also non home chargers cost as much as gas but you have to sit in your car for at least 20 minutes while gasoline can fill up in 3 minutes. Insurance costs more for comparable EVs. Repair prices. I have heard people paying $6K to fix the AC in a Tesla

Never have non citizens been allowed to have protests in America. They can protest in their home countries all they want but they signed papers that they didnt come to America to protest. Also Obama deported over 3 million people and 80% did not have a judge. The only reason this is in the news is because Trump is in office.

Because we put everyone in college instead of the Trades. The electricians in Indiana, Ohio Pennsylvania make like $110K per year. The Pipefitters $140k. Plumbers over $100K. Welders $150k. Power distribution operators Water plant operators over $100k. And these are lower standard of living states. These are middle class jobs but people have been told they need an Art or Psychology degree. No wonder they complain they cant find jobs.
