You might have read in May that only seven electric vehicle charging stations have been constructed, compared to the$ 7.5 billion the Biden-Harris administration provided to build the 500, 000 stations ( they’re similar to gas stations but with more pretense ).  ,

The Inflation Reduction Act program, which provides$ 5 billion to the big boys, and the rest, which provides$ 2.5 billion in discretionary grant funding from the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure ( CFI ) program, are split up into the big boys.
Both legislation have such deceptive titles that there would be legal action if they were names on goods produced by the private sector rather than Congress.  ,
However, I’m here to tell you right now that all of those information about the seven charging stations are lies, or at least totally destroyed by current events. The most recent data I can get indicates that the total is then eight. So that’s eight over and simply 499, 992 to come. At the present rate of development, Biden-Harris may achieve their goal not later than the year 144, 881 AD.
But that’s all outdated information. Let’s get to yesterday’s information.
In 2022 and 2023, two sessions of roughly a billion dollars were spent with little success. If you said that we could possibly use more charging channels and probably spend less money after a billion and eight charging channels, I’d like to thank you on reaching VodkaPundit levels of invective.  ,
But if you’re a Democrat, the truth is always the same: double down on throwing cash at the problem.  ,

To accomplish this, the Biden-Harris management recently announced the subsequent$ 521 million in grants to 29 different states to construct EV charging facilities. And this moment they swear it’ll job. The second half-billion dollar large must have succeeded, which the first two failed to do.
When I wrote,” put more money at the problem”, I forgot to include the notion that the problem is absurd. Illusion. A exist.
The administration claims that there are currently more than 192, 000 publicly accessible charging ships in the US, with about 1, 000 new public adapters being added every year, according to The Verge’s edition of today’s THROW MOAR MONIES AT CHARGERS history. Those are charging ports— like personal petrol pumps, but with more pretense — no stations. But with a hard average of 10 slots per place, that’s nearly 20, 000 existing Vehicle stations and 100 novel stations each year.
All without those Biden-Harris IRA money.
Because everyone wanted a gas-powered vehicles, nothing was required to pay for the construction of gas station infrastructure. With all those grants, there are enough Electric cars on the roads and more to come, though not as fast as the Left would like, to encourage the development of 100 stations per month.

Hardly anybody seems to want a taste of those Biden-Harris IRA dollars, with almost all of the$ 7.5 billion just sitting there, waiting to be claimed. However, businesses like Tesla and ChargePoint are content to enlarge them at their own charge by constructing them out in the tens of thousands.
The reason is that those national funds come with governmental regulations. Every 50 km along the government’s federal routes, charging stations are required to be used there. NEV dollars are required to be spent on them. The need for batteries on highways is still low compared to the urban areas, where they are virtually everywhere.
So the cash sits it. Unspent. The Biden-Harris EV ice resources were tried by congressional Republicans, but nothing has been achieved. If we want our$ 7.5 billion again, we’re going to have to choose more Republicans.
