"Supposedly 'sustainable' electric cars are getting junked over minor damage"
'If you throw away the vehicle at an early stage, you've lost pretty much all advantage'

WND News Services
Published March 20, 2023 at 10:36am

By John Hugh DeMastri
Daily Caller News Foundation

Insurers are being forced to write off many electric vehicles with only minor damage to battery packs, sending the batteries to scrap yards and hindering the climate benefits of going electric, Reuters reported.

Battery packs typically represent roughly half the cost of an electric vehicle, sometimes costing tens of thousands of dollars, often making it more economical for insurers to consider a car as totalled than replace a battery pack, according to Reuters. While many carmakers, including Ford and GM, told Reuters that their battery packs were repairable, many are unwilling to share key data with third-party insurers to help assess damage.

“The number of cases is going to increase, so the handling of batteries is a crucial point,” Christoph Lauterwasser, managing director of the research institute Allianz Center for Technology, told Reuters. “If you throw away the vehicle at an early stage, you’ve lost pretty much all advantage in terms of [carbon dioxide] emissions.”

Allianz, an insurance firm and parent company of Allianz Center for Technology, has seen cases where battery packs were scratched, and likely had undamaged internals, but a lack of access to diagnostic data forced the company to write off the vehicles, Reuters reported. Producing electric vehicle batteries emits much more in terms of carbon dioxide emissions than producing a gas-powered car, in some cases requiring an electric car to rack up more than 10,000 miles before it makes up for the additional emissions in production, according to a Reuters estimate.

It cost roughly $206 per month on average to insure an electric vehicle in 2023, 27% more than gas-powered cars, Reuters reported, citing online brokerage Policygenius. Without access to diagnostic data, it is likely that insurance costs will climb as more electric vehicles are sold and low-mileage cars are scrapped.

Electric vehicle and battery production are both expected to climb dramatically by 2026, off the back of more than $120 billion in investments, according to the Environmental Defense Fund. Annual production of electric vehicles is projected to climb from roughly 1 million per year in 2023 to 4.3 million in 2026, while annual battery production is expected to climb from 2.4 million per year in 2023 to 11.5 million per year in 2026.

President Joe Biden has made electric vehicle tax credits, from his signature Inflation Reduction Act, a cornerstone of his domestic policy. While Biden’s plan was initially forecast to cost roughly $30 billion in tax breaks over the next 10 years, the surge of domestic investments has caused private analysts to reevaluate the cost of the tax breaks to more than $136 billion.

"Black XXIII"

Salamander's "Wild Billy's Circus Story"
(To be sung to Bruce Springsteen's "Wild Billy's Circus Story")

The liberal climbs outta his soap box like a grave
And the socialist's lyin' in a pool of sweat, victim of the right wave
Behind the tent, Dr. Dean tightens his legs on the pro-choicer's blade
Circus town's on the shortwave

Well, the Dem convention lies ahead like a great false dawn
Woah, Fat lady, big mama, Missy Hilly sits in the Senate and yawns
And her man-beast lies in his cage sniffin' cigars
Then the idjit licks his fingers and suffers Missy Hilly's scorn
Circus town's been born

Woah...And the candidates flip-floppin' go, ideology to-and-fro, up in that spotlight
With a cannon blast, lightnin' flash, movin' fast through the "big tent", Hell-bent
They're gonna miss their fall, oh, God save those human cannonballs

And the lyin' 'rats watch Hitlerita do her truth twist
And the ringmaster gets the crowd to count along: 2004, 2006, 2008

A ragged pant-suit in hand, she steals silently away from the White House grounds
And Chappaqua's haunted by the "legacy" sounds
They shriek like a fake suicide note ghost on the wind

A sheman in crusty pants, bugging eyes, a crazy grin
Runnin' home to some small little Arkansas town
Willy, send some sweet interns to distract all your clowns

And Willy Boy dances like a puppet on barbed wires
And Teddy goes swimmin' with a diver who's got a flat tire
But the Elephants dance real funky and the FReep spreads like a jungle fire
Circus town's on the live wire

And the strong man Dubya lifts the midget, Tiny Tom, up on his shoulders, way up
And carries him on down the midway, past the kids, past the sailors, past his dim-witted failures
And the approval polls soar and soar like they ain't never gonna stop
And the big boss leans over and whispers in little Daschle's ear
"2004, runt, I'll still be runnin' the Big Top!!"
All aboard, and Iowa's their next stop

Good job, my FRiend...MUD

"IF..."
By Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
so hold on when there is nothing in you
butt the Will which says to them: "Hold on !";

You can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

You could talk yer way outta anything the Press asks you...
But the things that Joe says ain't true!!

Lib'rals imagine a world where folks accept tyranny...

"Lord Monckton DESTROYS Climate Alarmism as Communist Scheme"

Enjoyed this video? Join my Locals community for exclusive content at thenewamerican.locals.com!

The man-made global-warming theorists made a very significant error in working out their ideas: they forgot the sun was shining, science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher Lord Cristopher Monckton told The New American magazine's Alex Newman in an interview at the Heartland Institute's (www.heartland.org) 15th international climate summit. The "superstitious" narrative, though, is being used to build up communist regimes and economies, Lord Monckton explains, citing numerous examples. But he spends much of the interview hilariously explaining a scientific paper he has been working on that exposes these errors that is expected to be published soon. The math is fairly simple, he said, and yet the warmists have had no response to these errors so far.

"Parallels Between The Roman Empire And The USA"
By Steve Burns

The Roman Empire and the United States are history’s most influential powers. Though separated by time and geography, there are some striking parallels between their rise, development, and potential decline. In this blog post, we’ll dive into the similarities and differences between these two mighty civilizations, focusing on the past 40 years of the United States.

Political Instability And Corruption

The Roman Empire
The Roman Empire faced significant political instability, especially during its later years. The empire saw a rapid turnover of emperors, many of whom were corrupt, ineffective, or simply not up to ruling such a vast and diverse realm. Corruption was widespread, with officials often using their positions for personal gain rather than the public good.

The United States
The United States, too, has seen a decline in the stability and effectiveness of its political system. Polarization has grown over the past four decades, and trust in institutions has waned. Corruption, though not as pervasive as in Rome, remains a concern in various government sectors.

Economic Inequality And Struggles

The Roman Empire
In Rome, wealth was heavily concentrated in the hands of a few elites. Most of the population lived in poverty, leading to social unrest and resentment. This inequality was exacerbated by Rome’s tax system, which disproportionately burdened the lower classes.

The United States
Income inequality in the United States has been rising for the past four decades, with the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer. This has led to social tensions and concerns about the long- term stability of the nation’s economic system.

Monetary Policy And Inflation

The Roman Empire
The Roman Empire struggled with inflation, particularly in its later years. This was mainly due to the empire’s debasement of its currency—reducing the precious metal content of coins to fund wars or other expenses. This, in turn, led to a loss of confidence in the currency and economic troubles.

The decline in Roman denarius’s purchasing power resulted from several factors, including inflation, currency debasement, and economic instability. As the Roman Empire expanded, it faced increasing expenses related to its military, administration, and infrastructure. To fund these expenses, the Roman government often resorted to debasing the denarius, which involved reducing the coin’s silver content.

Initially, the denarius was made of nearly pure silver, but over time, the percentage of silver in the coin was progressively reduced. By mixing silver with base metals like copper, the Roman government could mint more silver coins with the same amount, effectively increasing the money supply. However, this currency debasement led to inflation, as the coins’ actual value was less than their face value. The increased money supply diminished the purchasing power of the denarius.

Inflation was further exacerbated by other economic factors, such as wage and price controls, which were implemented to address rising costs but often had the unintended effect of creating shortages and black markets. The Roman government also struggled to collect taxes effectively, which led to further financial strain and an increasing reliance on debasing the currency.

As the denarius became less valuable, people began to lose confidence in the currency. This led to a general decline in trade and economic activity. People started hoarding more valuable commodities like gold and silver bullion, and merchants became reluctant to accept the debased currency. As the purchasing power of the denarius continued to decline, it contributed to the overall economic instability and eventual decline of the Roman Empire.

The United States
The United States has experienced the same currency debasement as Rome. The passage of the Gold Reserve Act of 1934 signified that the American people could no longer hold gold except for jewelry and collectors’ coins.

Silver certificates were introduced in the United States as a form of currency in 1878. These certificates represented a specific amount of silver bullion and could be redeemed for physical silver. The use of silver certificates as the currency continued until the 1960s. The issuance of new silver certificates ceased in 1964, and they were discontinued as a form of currency after the Coinage Act of 1965, which removed the requirement for U.S. currency to be backed by precious metals. Silver certificates that had already been issued remained legal tender and could be used as currency. Also, coinage stopped being made from 90% silver in 1964 and was phased out by 1969, with dollars, half dollars, and dimes made from nickel- plated copper. This is the debasement of coinage like the Roman Denarius.

The United States stopped allowing its citizens to convert the currency to gold on August 15, 1971. This was when President Richard Nixon announced the “Nixon Shock,” which effectively ended the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates and took the U.S. off the gold standard. This meant foreign governments could no longer exchange U.S. dollars for gold. The U.S. dollar became a fiat currency, and inflation increased in the 1970s.

The limitation on gold ownership in the United States was repealed after President Gerald Ford signed a bill legalizing private ownership of gold coins, bars, and certificates by an Act of Congress, codified in Pub. L. 93–373, which went into effect December 31, 1974.

Inflation has persisted, especially after the 2008 financial crisis and the recent pandemic. The Federal Reserve’s monetary policies, which have focused on low-interest rates and quantitative easing, have stoked inflation and potential long-term economic instability.

Military Overreach And Resource Allocation

The Roman Empire
Rome’s military was stretched thin across its vast empire. Constant warfare and the need to defend its borders drained resources that could have been used for other purposes, such as infrastructure or social programs. Eventually, Rome’s overextended military contributed to its decline.

The United States
The United States has maintained a significant global military presence since World War II. However, in recent decades, critics argue that the nation’s military commitments have become overextended and costly, diverting resources away from critical domestic needs.

Demographic Shifts And Immigration

The Roman Empire
The Roman Empire experienced a population decline and demographic changes due to migration, disease, and other factors. These shifts impacted Rome’s economy and social fabric as new populations and cultures mingled with the traditional Roman way of life.

The United States
Demographic changes in the United States over the past 40 years have included an aging population, slowing birth rates, and increased immigration. These changes have led to debates over immigration policy, cultural assimilation, and the future of American identity.

Infrastructure Challenges

The Roman Empire
Maintaining Rome’s vast infrastructure, including roads, aqueducts, and public buildings, became increasingly difficult as resources were stretched thin. The empire struggled to keep up with the demands of its aging infrastructure, ultimately contributing to its decline.

The United States
The United States faces similar challenges with its aging infrastructure. Bridges, roads, and public transportation systems have declined for decades, and the nation has struggled to allocate the necessary resources for their maintenance and improvement. This has led to concerns about crumbling infrastructure’s long-term economic and social impact.

The Decline In Civic Values

The Roman Empire
Rome experienced a decline in traditional civic values and social cohesion as its empire expanded. This decline was further exacerbated by political corruption, economic struggles, and the influx of new cultural influences.

The United States
In recent decades, concerns have been raised about the erosion of shared values and social fragmentation in the United States. Political polarization, declining civic engagement, and social media influence have contributed to a growing sense of disunity and mistrust among Americans.

Climate Change And Resource Depletion

The Roman Empire
Rome faced challenges with resource depletion and environmental issues such as soil erosion, deforestation, and desertification. These factors contributed to food shortages, economic strain, and social unrest.

The United States
The United States is grappling with mining, pollution, and resource depletion impacts. Flooding, extreme weather events, and biodiversity loss threaten the nation’s economy, environment, and public health.

Conclusion
While there are many parallels between the Roman Empire and the United States, it’s essential to remember that the two civilizations are fundamentally different, and the U.S. faces unique challenges. However, by examining the shared struggles and lessons from Rome’s decline, politicians can better understand the potential pitfalls facing the United States and work to address them proactively. In doing so, they can help ensure the continued stability and prosperity of the nation for future generations.
