A poll taken last month shows that 48% of consumers would not consider buying an EV. That’s up seven percentage points from last year. Only 35% of those who responded to the Gallup poll said they might consider buying one, down from 43% just a year ago. A mere 9% said they were seriously considering an EV purchase. That portion was 12% in 2023.
EV ownership has increased. In 2024, 7% of Americans own a battery-powered car. Last year only 4% owned an EV.
But maybe the fever has broken. Even 27% of Democrats are saying in 2024 they would not buy an EV compared to 17% last year. Among independents, the “would nots” have grown to 47% from 38%.
Of course, EVs aren’t the only choice Democrats want to make for the country.
Democrats insist that they have to manage the production of household appliances, limit the choices of sneakers and deodorants, and design dishwashers and gas cans. They have banned or restricted a host of modern conveniences, from single-use plastic bags to plastic utensils to natural gas, condiment packs, and incandescent bulbs. They’ve outlawed shower heads and toilets they don’t like. They have targeted heating and cooling systems with obstructive guidelines.
There is so much to do.
These people clearly believe we need help in making decisions and living. Their idea of democracy must be limited to voting and must not be connected to the idea of freedom itself.
