RE:RE:$300.00 Oil vs Demand Destruction Agreed and speaking of fairy dust, even if the good fairy dropped a Tesla in every one of our driveways overnight, how are we going to charge them ?
The electrical grid would be down and out as soon as we all plugged our shiny new Teslas in.
I'm no expert in electrical supply but the upgrade required to both the grid and electricity production must be one big fat number that will take one pile of fairy dust to remedy.

Maybe check out the prices of copper, zinc and nickel before saying consumers will go to alternatives. EVs aren't built from fairy dust and electricity is now produced mainly by natural gas. It's folly to think alternatives will be cheaper or significantly less damaging to the environment or to world stability. The fact is that Russia and China will be major producers of lithium. We also can't simply transition overnight. Biden saying simply "buy an EV" shows how idiotic his administration is.
