Less than two percent of Americans believe focusing on replacing gas vehicles with electric will provide the U.S. with energy independence, a Convention of States Action/Trafalgar Group survey released Tuesday found., “What do you believe is most likely to provide America with reliable, long-term energy independence?”
A plurality, 40.6 percent, said they believe increasing domestic oil and gas production will provide America with energy independence, followed by 25.5 percent who said focusing on “new energy investments on renewables like solar and wind” will achieve that. One in four public electric vehicle charging stations in the San Francisco Bay Area does not work, according to a new study.

It's called China dependence.
Probably 2% of MAGA
I'd say less than that believe Breitbart, so do your own research, America haters
Things can be true even if people don't believe it
Electric vehicles will not provide energy independence, just the opposite it gives the government more control. They will turn Electric on and off .
Your crowd keeps getting smaller. Try harder with your obvious lies.
Wouldn’t be the first time 98% were wrong
How many believes automobiles would replace horses and bicycles? Have any survey data on that? IBM doubted that individuals would ever use personal computers in their homes. Next …
You have to get the energy from somewhere current green power technologies are inadequate
Hybrid, or hydrogen.
Breitbart 'News'. Like Fox 'News', only less truthful.
It’s a scam folks. They are worse than combustion engines. This is all about government control
Bullsh*t. Reducing use of fossil fuels is the only way to provide energy independence while reducing carbon emissions. Wind and solar power can greatly reduce the need to burn fossil fuels.
WE DON'T HAVE THE GRID SYSTEM FOR IT
A lot of Americans have been fooled their entire lives by lies told by corporations for profit. Now we all have PFAs in our blood and we have to drink bottled water. This is just like the old phone companies trying to hold on to their monopolies.
Less than two percent of Americans believe anything on
Well, yeah. All the machines, batteries, computer parts etc needed to do so are made with raw materials we dont have in the U.S.
EV batteries blow up, start fires, take way to long to charge, cost way to much to replace and can be a great detriment if u have to escape a catastrophic event without notice!
You have got to start sometimes and somewhere. It ain't easy, but has any change ever been nice and easy?
Then the republicans better start funding infrastructure and the energy of the future to get us set up for it! Don’t understand why people want to be held to OPEC.
Ev's have many problems that are just now coming out.
The plan is for just the opposite.. they want energy “dependency”.
Maybe with current tech. 10 years from now EV will be better. Might even be able to charge itself from the sun or the Earths electromagnetic grid.
NOT GOING TO HAPPEN
Breitbart celebrates ignorance.
What is every auto manufacturer in the world thinking?
The Left actually doesn’t care what the people think...they are just telling you how it is going to be...if u don't like it you are a threat to 'the soul of our democracy' or some other crp
This is a lie
Talk about a deer in the headlights moment and he can’t even ride a bike
Good, no one on any side intends that to be the only solution.
Breitbart posts lies
More BS from BB.
Electric cars are a hazardous to the roads and to expensive for foe man foks isnt that the whole piont thoy they don't want you driving box us in to cities and towns
Considering that over 2/3 of US oil usage is for transportation, we need to educate Americans about the facts rather than spread disinformation.
Consider the source.
just the opposite and it will destroy the environment in the process.
POTUS why in the world are the democrats catering to the 2% and not the 98%?
Bullshit
I will not sell my car for a Electric car
So what is the plan to reduce eliminate global warming by these 98% people? We can keep burning fossil fuel and live on this planet. Easy to be against stuff like this but hard to come up with a plan everyone likes.
Because Americans are not stupid and unlike Dems we understand that most electricity come from fossil fuels
How can you NOT SEE that switching to electric WILL provide energy independence? A reasonable person would deduce that most Americans simply don't know If U were a patriot, you'd help educate them. But since you're MAGA, you simply want power 2 fuck things up more
Not quickly it won't. The transition will take time and we don't have anymore to waste.
Consider the source.
I drive an '02 Prius gets 50mpg. $35 fills the tank and lasts a month. My mechanic has a Chevy Leaf and gets 200mpg. Y'all need to get on board.
Duh.... People can't afford electric cars and the facilities to charge them all the time anyway. It simply will not work logistically anyway. Simply is not possible.
Do they also think there is limitless gas and that we will all be rich and happy? I feel sorry for people who 'believe' and don't think for themselves. Life must be so hard for you.
Maybe you should research why we are switching over. But hey don’t worry I know that brain injury has complicated things for you
This “news” site is garbage.
That's because you get $ from the fossil fuel industry. Fake news.
Gotta poll someone other than the MAGA crowd. You know, the ones with more than one marble rolling around.
By the end of the decade these EVs will be seen as a complete failure!
That must be polling all Liberals.
STOP VOTING DEMOCRAT!!!
Biden- Where's the road?
I guess you’ll do your best not to help America.
Washington state doesn't have the infrastructure to drive over 100 miles in any direction today. No gas taxes will mean more sales taxes and a state income tax on your wages.
When the meds kick in
Who the fuck did you ask? The local retirement home?
We already had energy independence, before Biden destroyed it. The US was a net EXPORTER of petroleum, both crude oil and refined.
Christopher Columbus sailed across the Atlantic to North America when most people thought the world was flat. So there's that
Good to know so many have common sense.
Government doesn't care what Americans want...
Yeah, thanks to big fossil fuel companies's propaganda, it has brainwashed lot of people that going EV won't make them energy independence. And also, when breitbart is trustworthy? How do we know if that article saying 2% of entire population is even remotely true at all?
That picture is hilarious! Where's the beef?
Sounds like typical Breitbart propaganda.
It is a money grab . It will not work but if you are in the know you can cash in.
Asteroid mining, harnessing nuclear fission/fusion, converting anti-matter into useable energy...prioritize educating bright young minds. 😊 Until that happens, it's all about conservation, recycling, and more efficient use of the energy we can produce now.
And there's a bigger problem in the world right now
Not Impressed.
It’s not even that high
How do they produce electricity?
How many know that the ELECTRICITY TO CHARGE ELECTRIC CARS COMES FROM BURNING COAL?
I believe changing the regime will provide us with energy independence.
134.83 billion gallons of gasoline per year in the USA Or 3,210,238,095 barrels of oil which only produces 20 gallons of gas. You’re clearly asking Americans the wrong questions.

Russia, against all visual evidence, claims they can get this bridge, Russia's only bridge to Crimea, operational and carrying men and equipment again. Light traffic has resumed, it said. Ukraine foxnews newsmax
First question, how will the necessary electricity be generated? Answer, fossil fuels. Second question, how many windmills and solar panels would it take to fully supply California electricity needs, acres of land needed to build the necessary infrastructure? Don’t know, anyone?
