Addressing the Ford Chicago Assembly Plant on the city's Southeast Side, Gov. JB Pritzker mentioned spatial constraints for battery production. However, he expressed optimism about the potential conversion of the plant to build EVs in the future. "You can convert almost anything, but if you're gonna have a battery plant nearby, which is typically what's happened, you're gonna do it on a larger footprint. I am hopeful that we will get at least the assembly plant continued and growing. Again, battery, not sure."
The iShares Global Clean Energy ETF is down over 30% this year as the “pie in the sky” dreams of the leftists sink into the reality that the whole thing reeks of government waste, cronyism and pipe dreams. That doesn’t stop Pritzker though when spending Illinois tax dollars. Funny thing though is that Pritzker could be re-elected because in the voting booth in Illinois it is not green energy but rather food stamps, welfare benefits, and other liberal causes that the Illinois voters so dearly love. Another pit for Illinois tax dollars while existing bills get kicked down the road.

To revise and extend Gov. Flintstone’s remarks, let’s add that Ford Motors will need to see a larger profit in EVs than they currently do and we’ll need to build a coal fired electrical generating plant to power the battery factory.
