Ask yourself what Biden and his minders would have done differently had they actually intended to impoverish the American citizenry. Just about the first thing Biden did upon taking office was mount an all-out attack on the American energy industry. His cancellation of the Keystone pipeline got a lot of ink. But that was just the tip of the oil rig. He has worked tooth and claw to destroy the coal industry. He has canceled oil- and gas-lease sales in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico. Is it any wonder that the United States went from being a net energy exporter at the end of the Trump administration to showing up, empty red can in hand, begging for the stuff from Venezuela and Iran?
It’s something to think about when you fill up your gas tank and notice that the gauges on the pumps have just been altered to allow for an extra digit: not $9.99 per gallon, Comrade, but $10.00 or more.
Biden Looks to Block or Limit New Offshore Drilling, Scaling Back Trump-Era Plan to Pump More Oil
Looks like someone is doing alright with their Model Y long road trip. Spent about $60 for 850 miles.

It costs the Tesla 3 owner about $3 to charge for every 100 miles or 33 miles per dollar.
Someone who lives in Kansas City pays 5 cents/kWh during off-peak hours. We’re so progressive in San Jose here, where we pay 25 cents/kWh.
At what price per kwhr?

Meanwhile, people don't expect gasoline to remain this high while electricity prices continue at multi-decade trend of outpacing inflation.

As far as I can tell (my bill is a bit confusing here), I'm paying about 40¢ kWh

Interesting post, thanks B.A.C.A.H

And I am pissed about my 20 c per kwh price after they raised the rate....

Ha ha ha! Let me know where I can purchase electricity at 9¢ kWh. How much are states subsidizing electric car charging (which seems to me to be a luxury compared to keeping the lights on or cooking food).
As far as I can tell (my bill is a bit confusing here), I'm paying about 40¢ kWh for the mandatory hand-picked, organic, non-GMO, PETA-compliant electrons. Those hand-pickers are unionized and fair-trade, too! From what I can glean, a Tesla model 3 goes about 3 miles on a kWh, which means 40¢/3 = 13¢/mile. On the highway, maybe 2.5 miles per kWh, so 20¢/mile. At $6/gallon and 30 MPG, a gasoline-powered car is doing 20¢/mile; ...

I found a flaw in what you said
What is the flaw?
“It is true that the utility company PG&E will allow us to sign up for a rate plan that allows us to charge at night "off peak" times for $0.25 per kwhr. However, to get this plan we must agree to pay a much higher price for other times of day, like over $0.54 per kwhr. PG&E has a portal where we can look up our hour-by-hour consumption. I've done this a few times. The "Off-peak EV rate charging plan" is mostly a wash at best. At worst, like if we don't use the car every day, it would shift more of our consumption into the super-high "peak rate" of $0.54.
- This is not true based on my experience, and the data I showed above. If more charging happens during off-peak hours, it’ll bring down the average $/kWh even more.
2 apartment buildings I own
We run A/C whenever we want. We yolo.
This doesn’t bother me.
little guys get screwed.
Our home is free and clear while our living expenses are around $15k/month.
Our living expenses are paid for by others.
The poor folks are the ones who take it up in the ass

As you said, based on your experience. That's your experience. I wasn't referring to your experience. I was ref...
