The push now is for MORE battery Electric Trucks, Cars, even Canadian National is Promoting a Train Engine Battery Electric with Solar Panels on the towed car roofs or some innovative pad type recharger stations in the Rail Road Bed so can recharge after a exhausting 200 miles 40-60 car load trek. WHO are these people, do they have a mind at all? The end result is Hundreds to thousands of limited Life batteries that will have to be recycled or made anew with ever faster limiting materials availability for them. Why not do as once did for NYC or Milwaukee Road and set Catenary systems Direct Electricity to the engines made from a power station, No Batteries Required and any energy source production facility can provide without Range Limitations???

All the modern day government sees is free money that they never did sweat for. It means nothing to them with no skin in the game.
They will plan and spend frivolously until all resources are spent. Big ideas with no common sense backing. People can’t understand pain until they’ve felt it. By the time these people feel it, it will be way too late. |

When you believe in Unicorns and the Easter Bunny, its not a huge step to picture a world without oil / gas .
