The sheer stupidity of the green movement never ceases to amaze us. Now they want to mandate that charging stations be installed in multi-family housing units for the owners and in many cases renters as well.

On January 1, Illinois will become the first state to require all new homes and apartment buildings to be equipped with sophisticated electric vehicle (EV) charging capabilities. Charging stations can cost upwards of $400.

More than 10 states have passed “Right-to-Charge” policies, guaranteeing that EV owners will be able to charge their vehicles at home.  They are:

Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Florida, Virginia, New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.

We can’t help but notice that these are all Blue States, with the exception of Purple Virginia.

The “Greens” want cleaner air and fewer carbon emissions. But if you subsidize something, you get more of it. So while the Feds spend billions of dollars to encourage people to conserve energy – for example on washers and dryers and dishwashers – the states are now encouraging Americans to drive MORE by paying for the charging stations – which will mean more greenhouse gas emissions.
