An electric auto requires seven times more copper than does a standard gasoline auto.
If there’s a copper shortage, why is the price tanking?
The Democrats and their eco-fascist allies have shut down the Pebble Mine in Alaska, which would have produced a lot of copper.
This one is really hard for me to figure unless someone, somewhere, has a large stash of copper just waiting for the price to go high enough. The Democrats are the push behind electric cars & yet they shut down a huge source of copper for it??? My personal feeling is that the electric cars are a bad idea...too many problems & potential problems. Most Democrats are the bad idea people, too, it seems.
