Biden's goofy plan for electric cars in rural areas

 Western Journal:

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that President Joe Biden is looking to build out half a million electric vehicle charging stations — focusing on “rural and disadvantaged communities” — as part of his $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill.

It should be noted that the average electric car costs around $55,600, and they are best utilized in cities.

It is not clear how disadvantaged communities could afford them or why rural residents would be interested in purchasing them.
...

With an average range of 2020 models around 250 miles, electric vehicles aren’t a good solution for rural residents who may drive long distances to shop, drop kids off at school or visit relatives and friends.

That is why the vast majority of EV ownership is concentrated around large cities.
...

There is also the fact that the rage for electric cars deteriorates over time and significantly less in cold weather.   They are also less dependable in extreme weather when electricity can be interrupted.
