Why are electric vehicles not a thing yet? Is it the batteries?

Soon user. If solid state lithium ion batteries can start to be e mass manufactured, it will increase the power density and decrease the charging time dramatically. We could see electric cars with 500 plus mile ranges. Hell, it would make all-electric airplanes doable.

>means that if one guy claiming he belongs to a group, you should hate everyone of this group
Wow. Such stupid reaction. They claim to be muslims, but only from a tiny branch. Like if a extremist mormon was claiming that he is a christian. might be true, but does not imply that catholics, orthodoxes, or protestants think the same way.
Plus, I think that every religion is a shitty idea : talk about philosophy, not stories of guys standing on water or writing a book in a night.
I hate the way the West just keep barginig in Arab affairs since WWII, though they claim they are independent. What "we" just want is their petrol, not that they elect their leader or any of this noble shit. The only problems are "Shit, they are keeping all the oil" and "Shit, they killed a bunch of our people because we brought a fuckin mess to them" Maybe "we" owned it, after all.

>4)It is much easier to use sea water to produce energy for a car. Look a bit for it, and you'll understand
You mean hydrogen powered? Because Wikipedia tells me water fueled cars are bullshit.

Kikes wanting to keep control of the car and energy market.

Yes, sort of. I am not really in this kind of knowledge : I just heard about a cycle of water and hydrogen being repeated almost forever in the engine

Partially yes. But also because:

1. Lack of easily available parts
2. Lack of easily available aftermarket parts
3. Americans want big cars, most electric cars (besides Teslas) are not this
4. Does not scale up well. Namely, pure EVs cannot compete with existing diesel/ethanol/propane/natural gas utility vehicles.

If all these problems were fixed then the lack of range and lack of charging stations would be fixed fairly quickly. Making a whole new car go mainstream is not easy unless the benefits are obvious and immediate.

>3)It would mean a big and sudden evolution of the global economy

It wouldn't. With the oil crash, it's obvious that each country can cut out the sauds and be much better off. Even Diesel can be replaced with natural gas found via fracking.

>Is it the batteries?

Yes.

/thread

I didn't say it would crash or anything, but just that it would change : right now, the power goes with owning petrol. So, if you don't prepare anything, the day petrol stops being mainly used as energy source, some countries will crash. But you can see it coming, and prepare some new global order in economics in order to let these countries alive. thus, it would only change by choosing a new value that gives the idea of the whole market helping the states that rely only on oil

>Middle east is already fucked up, we don't need to remove all their source of wealth
Let them go broke. There would probably be a wave of terrorism when they get desperate, but their practices would soon become unsustainable.
