Legislation mandates residential buildings accommodate EV charging – Center Square

State Rep. Dan Caulkins said it is another example of government overreach by telling people how to build their homes. “The free market will dictate what’s needed and necessary. This is an example of why Illinois is not a friendly place to come and live.”

You will start to see hundreds of extension cords hanging out of apartment windows to charge their cars. Make sure you have different color cords to see which one is yours. At night sneak a cord into your neighbors outlet to save money. Cover that cord with hay so you won’t get caught.

And how long until they mandate that you must buy only a EV to drive?

Lets’ see

— half the range when temperature goes below 40 degrees

— impossible to find chargers

— once you find a charger, it takes an hour to charge — versus 3 minutes at the gas pump

— prices start at an affordable $85,000 for a basic family vehicle

— if you get in an accident, the ambulance will easily find you, by looking for the giant battery fire inferno that lasts for 2 days

Yeah — that sounds great!!
