I said give me studies. I've got 5000 posts of plans and "we need to", and I have 5000 posts showing what it will take. You can't wave a wand and do it. Show me car production, battery production, battery raw materials and how to overcome production restraints. #s, not "Yes we can". Show me where we can produce 25M Priuses a year for the next 10 years. This ain't about "Yes, we can" This is about, "No, we have no lithium cadmium telluride tellurium today." You make it sound so simple. Nothing can be farther from the truth. There ain't no cornucopia. We haven't even built the infrastructure to get the resources to the cornucopia building factory. Like, are you ready to go to war in China to get the largest supply of rare earths in the world, or are you just gonna find a new supply in My Pet Goat?
