If it’s not one thing, it’s another.
You may call that as part of the Biden administration’s 2021 ‘Inflation Increase Act’, $7.5 billion in green welfare was allotted to Tesla and other electric car owners to build them electric car chargers.
While $7.5 billion was put toward aiding the poorest and most helpless among us, that money wasn’t even properly spent with only 55 EV chargers built.
That’s up from 0 in 2023 so at this rate of progression, we might see enough EV chargers built to accommodate the fairly small number of Tesla owners by 2062.
Trump isn’t waiting that long and he’s freezing the program to outraged howls of protest from Dems and their media.
‘Just causing havoc’: Transportation Department suspends EV charger program – Washington Post
Havoc! Allocating billions for EV chargers the vast majority of Americans don’t need and failing to build them after all these years isn’t causing havoc, but cutting off the flow of ill-gotten cash, is havoc.
States trying to build a network of EV chargers are reeling after the Trump administration abruptly ordered a halt to a $5 billion program to build the chargers on highways nationwide.
Reeling! Won’t someone please think of the EV chargers.
The order, which comes as many states are still working to build out their public chargers supported by $5 billion in grants, could strike a major blow to an industry that has experienced slower-than-expected sales and could lose critical federal tax incentives in coming months.
Just 55 charging stations have been built so far, according to data from the analytics firm Paren.
