Why people should be buying music albums again [CDs, tapes, Vinyls, Digital]

The music industry may or may not be in trouble as streaming has taken over.

Well.. it’s fragmented. We’ve been saturated with so many new artists that it’s difficult to keep up with them all depending on what you listen to.

Compact Disc [CD], cassette tapes,Vinyls and digital.

First, the way CDs are gaining traction:

CDs Make a Sudden Comeback Thanks to a Surprising New Audience

Everyone Says CDs Are Dead or Dying, But Here’s the Real Story

https://www.headphonesty.com/2024/10/cd-not-dead-evolving/

If you’re not wanting to click on these links the summary is that CDs have been on a decline since the explosion of streaming. Which we’ll get to the links on the reason music albums in general are declining later. While you do have articles pointing to either direction what has actually been happening is CDs and album buying had been on a decline. Best Buy for an example quit having a decent selection in CD buying as fewer people were buying them.

The problem, Best Buy as a result became a decline. Stores in general have been due to online shopping but that’s another story. Basically the truth is, fewer people are buying CDs and albums in general. But wait? Why the conflict?

Taylor Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” sold an amazing 2.47 million CD copies in the first half of 2024, according to Luminate’s data.

While the younger generation is fueling the revival of CD buying this is based on a single album, released in April 2024. This is far from the way people listen to music which is mostly streaming. At least in the United States…

Podcasts Keep Growing, But Music Still Takes the Cake by an Enormous Margin

How music is played: 32% AM/FM, 28% of music is streamed, 18% YouTube, 9% owned (physical, digital)

In perspective streaming music and YouTube takes the biggest chunk out of digital and physical sales, which totals out at 46% while AM and FM are either talk radio or regular radio. I didn’t mention the others and while this isn’t the most accurate way to look at it album sales are on a decline regardless.

How music lost its value

https://www.fastcompany.com/91159227/how-music-lost-its-value-eminem-documentary-cds-90s-napster

It all started with Napster and ended with streaming services such as Spotify and YouTube. Sadly with the reduced album sales it’s never been a worst time to be in the music industry where tour prices have gone up and people would prefer to stream the music they like instead of buying the artists work.

Why I Prefer Streaming Music Over Owning Albums

https://www.makeuseof.com/why-prefer-streaming-music-over-owning-albums/

• Unlimited Music Access
• Cost Effectiveness
• Music Discovery and Recommendations
• Real-Time Access to New Releases
• Modern Features

Now this does make a lot of sense and streaming does have its uses after all, instant access to an entire massive library all in one place with new albums being added every day streaming makes a lot of sense. It also helps those who don’t listen to albums regularly. Now let’s look at the other aspect…

Why I Prefer Owning My Music Over Streaming

https://www.makeuseof.com/prefer-owning-music-over-streaming/

• CDs Sound Better Than Streaming
• Preserving Physical Media is Important to Me
• Yet Another Subscription? No Thanks!
• Buying CDs Feels More Intimate
• I Love Displaying CDs On My Shelf

Of course there are advantages of buying CDs or albums in general that you own. I prefer buying CDs that I can toss on the computer and my phone. I don’t stream because otherwise I’d use up a lot of my data and besides that I use last.fm religiously as you can still get all the perks of streaming. It’s a little less intuitive as streaming services with millions of albums at the ready but the way it works is that I just listen to the music from my phone (or computer) and it basically keeps a record of what listen to. I still have to work a bit to get new material, by looking for it on YouTube. If I like it, I’ll buy the CD. Sometimes i have to download it in order to listen to it more frequently as the CD isn’t available.

Often times it involves going to other websites because last.fm isn’t totally perfect either but it certainly helps what I’ve listened to and how much to determine whether looking at similar artists is a good thing and helps to determine whether or not buying the album is even worth it if I’m listening to it regularly. Plus it’s nice to communicate to other listeners.

To me buying CDs helps out the artist and encourages the label to keep CDs in print which I’m bringing to my next concern. As a CD buyer for quality and for the artwork (Vinyl is too expensive) some albums are not even being produced. Many Christian artists are no longer releasing albums on CD, however since I listen to a lot of metal CD buying is more common, but still labels or artists are letting their albums go out of print  or not reissuing them despite the fact there are still some who prefer buying CDs.

Either they are not seeing the sales they want, nobody is buying them or a combination of both. Unfortunately since not every fanbase is heading out to the music store or buying their CDs online. As streaming took over album buying it can be seen as fragmented that certain artists or labels see that certain problem so they don’t want to spend the resources to make, say 5,000 CDs that won’t sell. However, I think in their best interest it would be far better to have it available as CDs don’t really have an expiration date and someplace like Amazon will just toss it in their warehouse and eventually someone will buy one. The label would automatically make the money anyways I imagine they have some albums sell better.

But I don’t know the full logistics of that let alone certain labels may find printing CDs may be more costly. It’s really up to whether the resurgence of CD buying is strong enough to make a proper comeback but CDs need enough buyers to convince the music industry that printing albums regardless of it’d popularity us worth it. And despite people claiming Vinyl is better, it’s true for the analog recordings. Everything today, produced digitally is best on CD. As mentioned in one of the articles most streaming is compressed and lacks the full sound quality on high end equipment.

Most people can’t tell the difference due to poor sound quality in their audio equipment. But I can sometimes hear background noise and muddied sound from mp3s compared to CDs and while I use a lossy format for my digital library its in Windows Media format. Whenever I download an album in mp3 for an example. Listen to it for awhile then buy the CD, copy it to WMA, the difference is clear. Streaming has the same issues I don’t like the quality and sometimes sound like a bad mp3.

GEOFF TATE Explains Upcoming Music Release Strategy: "We Have A Full Album's Worth Of Material That We're Gonna Release Over A Two-Year Period"

“we have quite a few songs written for the album. I guess you don’t call ‘em albums anymore. I don’t know. We’re gonna release a song one at a time, but we have a full album’s worth of material that we’re gonna release over a two-year period. So, that’s all ready to go”

TONY CAMPOS Weighs In On STATIC-X's Future

“On the topic of new music, Campos was uncertain about future plans. He mentioned the changing landscape of the music industry, saying, “I don’t know if we’ll be doing full-length albums. Who buys albums now? [Laughs] I think maybe if we do write any new music, maybe it’ll be a single. But I don’t know. I’m just living in the now and enjoying the now. And when the future comes, I’ll cross that bridge and we’ll deal with it.”

Now, I posted these two links and captured these as quotes on the bottom which is yet another reason for this blog. Far as I know these two artists are concerned about the future of the music industry and whether it’s pulling away from albums. The first one with Geoff Tate is going to release an albums full of  singles over the next two years. It’s I suppose an album he supposedly did that will be released as singles.

The next one here is Tony Campos seeing a potential shift, whether it’s brought on by artists such as Geoff Tate pulling away from the traditional way of releasing an album.

Now I’m sure in one of the links I posted, probably at the top has this concern that people are not buying albums, they’re streaming them instead. In one article, shows the problem that while streaming is far cheaper than buying full length albums it’s created this mess of lack of CD buying or digitally owning them and I do get the part where it’s like, why buy the CD or digital album when I can just stream it anytime I want to?

Well… the convenience and saving money is what’s killing albums and the music industry in general. Sure going to shows help bring in more money for artists and while buying the album helps out the record label more than the artist, record labels are now being forced to make changes and those changes are now apparent that the album concept is a potential sinking ship.

Depending on who you are asking there are two different groups of people out there, those who want to listen to albums and those who just want the greatest hits, or single songs. And yes albums do have fillers, it greatly depends on the artist, whether the album was written for content or filler as a result some like a couple of songs others prefer the entire album. Sometimes the album was just not that great. Some artists can create great albums.

However since the dawn of the radio I think most people have grown accustomed to only listening to single songs versus entire albums.  It was until albums being released that has gained the attention of those who like 30+ minutes of music. And to many, they just have various artists in their playlists on the regular basis. Which is since streaming has been killing CDs and albums in general.

While majority of artists is currently still pushing albums out theres been gaps in between the length of them. Generally 2 to 3 years is the time span between when an album is released and artists tend to get that gap further to 5 or more years depending on the band. So it’s not only just the lack of albums buying its the amount of commitment to release new material and I get it, artists tend to have writers block. After the 2nd or 3rd album they feel they ran their course so while they may tour for a long time they don’t release anything. More artists are releasing singles or EPs which tend to have 3-7 songs versus 10-12+.

I think for the general underground artists they’ll continue writing new albums because they want to stay relevant but it’s going to be more fractured than ever before. If this isn’t enough today’s music is oversaturated to the point where we may get a variety of albums and singles. But without artists providing albums will they release a collection of their singes on CDs or will their music be permanently in the streaming world? I run into new underground artists with CDs out of stock with no interest in reprinting them and some of them are digital only or streaming only.

Spiritbox for an example, I’ve been attempting to find one of their EPs but was only available on streaming. I eventually ran into an mp3 download but that was about it. No CD. Sadly for a fairly popular artist they don’t provide EPs on CD. Similar happened with Orbit Culture. No CD on the latest EP they have done despite them releasing everything else on CD. So this is sadly already occurring of streaming only. At least for some artists. With these 2 bands in growing popularity, the opposite should occur and offer releasing on CDs. Well… I can only hope this can change but with the attitude of “CDs are antiques. Streaming is now!” The future of music is in jeopardy.

In Summary; The Bottom Line

Realistically I do see the benefits of streaming and this blog isn’t out to attack streaming as I have mentioned it is useful and a lot of people enjoy it over dealing with physical or digital music. I have however written this as a concern especially for those like me who prefer their music on CD, lossless digital data or well as I mentioned WMA is better than MP3s but you can really mostly get that from CDs. Amazon seems to be MP3 only and well for me a lossless format such as FLAC currently takes up too much space. Eventually though my favorites will probably have that anyway its taking a long time to mitigate all my music collection together to figure out storage space, plus with discovering new artists cramming it all together will get rough.

Continuing with streaming, I think it’s mostly a great tool to find new material. It doesn’t really help the music industry from an album standpoint though. As of now buying the album whether digitally or physically is the only best method. For people who prefer streaming it gets conflicting as there really is no point in buying a CD you’re not going to use. At the other spectrum it’s simply a collectors item. I use them initially to copy onto the computer then my phone and plus I like collecting the albums I enjoy so there is that but it does take up space so it wouldn’t work for those who want a tidy/minimalist lifestyle. There is the option of buying digitally but then you don’t really need it if you prefer streaming.

I guess it all boils down to how much do you appreciate the music you enjoy. Streaming saves money from having to buy $15 albums that just sits on the shelf. Again this isn’t a blog to tell people what to do, the entire point here is to simply encourage the idea if you want something like future albums streaming alone won’t help that. And CD buying, well that’s simply whether or not people are dedicated enough to keep an antiquated piece of technology that probably half of music listeners doesn’t want to go back to.

I haven’t listened to any albums on CD, even though I do have enough CD players around but considering WMA does quite well for me I don’t see a need for it. But it’s still nice to occasionally dive into album art insert.

The fall of electric vehicles, the climate change hysteria

Electric vehicles are not selling as well as people has hoped as the majority want gas vehicles..

https://americasnewmajorityproject.com/a-majority-of-americans-prefer-gas-powered-vehicles/

Electric vehicles are piling up on vacant lots, dealerships couldn’t sell them and used EVs are even worse as dealers are unable to sell those as well. They either reject them or give little to no money for them. I’ve heard instances where dealers had to charge people to get rid of their EVs! The electric vehicles are not selling as well as they had hoped it would.

All they’ve done is created chaos. And yet states like California is still forcing the end of gasoline vehicles despite the fact majority doesn’t want them. However sooner or later California is going to drive everyone away.

Which brings me to the next lie is climate change is the biggest lie and Christians should have no part in it, ideally. Forcing the end of oil is a huge mistake as millions depend on it. Climate change is a huge lie that has infested news outlets, despite having many severe weather it’s not common but it’s not abnormal either. If people took the time to look (as most never do) there is just tons of lies. They claimed the UK was going to be a huge heatwave but instead it was cold, everyone is wearing jackets.

The other aspect is that they try to push any event that is, unlikely to happen and claim climate crisis. If there’s no storms, climate crisis. It’s cold, climate crisis. Basically they’re saying its 2 degrees warmer yet most are not going to check it out and data can be falsified to meet their agendas.

Then, all these people that claim climate change is an issue live in a very luxurious lifestyle telling those who are middle class or the poor they have to stop using oil. Which is not only strange its hypocrisy and it exposed the lie that climate change is an issue or rather oil being responsible for climate change. They continue to use it and the clueless people buy solar and an electric vehicle (which is perfectly fine as a choice) but I’ve gotten into arguments with people who think that everyone else needs to get into it and they’re acting like salesmen.

Just stop oil (look them up) has caused mayhem everywhere and it’s practically laughable as they use petroleum products to make a stand against fossil fuels. It also got people to take a stand against that and say Just Use Oil.

It’s not meant to force people away from using EVs it’s just to show how ridiculous this push against oil/fossil fuels really is in the basis of climate change which scientists has gotten wrong or blately lying. Just use oil is to empower people to take a stand and say no to EVs and there’s no climate change as these people who are pushing climate change is unethically forcing people off of oil. You can’t stop oil but people certainly will try to which is exactly why people need to stand their ground and protect a necessity that has helped their lives.

Overpopulation: Cant go anywhere without someone else being there!! A lot of people lack life lessons.

It seems like these days even at 4am there are still people on the roads and they’re always in a hurry. Tailgaters or just plain we’re cutting through 3 lanes of traffic to get across just to get to your destination 2 minutes faster.

Theft and crime is at an all time high then we have illegals pouring in through our borders. If that’s not enough we celebrate men pretending to be women. Satan has taken control of our world while we’re just getting irritated day after day…

All the while we got a decrepit president who is running for 2024 and we got another that failed to save our country and the citizens hate him so much they want him dead who also wants to run. We seem to be hitting the end times here or are we?

Yeah on top of that we have climate doomsayers telling us we have to stop using fossil fuels or we’re all dead. Really is that a bad thing? With everything going on and they’re not fixing our problems, they just make them worse. And majority of the population doesn’t even care about climate change l.

But the thing is we have 8 billion people in the world these days and we don’t have control of the people on the roads, dealing with the crime, and everyone else is top busy with their lives. At some point we’ve hit a brick wall already.

We failed to take care of one another but let’s have more people that we’re not taking care of. If we’re not in control of the people already here we won’t be in control of the young people who learn how to do wrong instead of right.

I was taught in school to give yourself a 3 second distance in between you and the driver in front of you but you got people driving 50+mph hugging the bumper in front of them. Not only you might hit them but you’ll end up in a bad accident, potentially in the hospital or dead.

The stupidity level in this world is accelerating while intelligence is dwindling. This is what happens when we place warning labels on everything because we don’t want people hurting themselves or others. Which seems to be a good thing but well unfortunately it just means they’ll go through life without learning necessary life lessons.

It’s like these people who tailgate others or driving in a hurry. Eventually you’ll learn but most smart people don’t want to be involved with that learning process. So are we just overpopulated or do we just got a lot of people in this world who are not learning. I think the thing is we do have too many people that just have not learned lessons they need to be learning.

And I certainly don’t want to be that person who has to teach them. And there are many ways they can learn, eventually will be the hard way. You drive dangerously you’ll end up wrecking. But you can do smart by still being cautious and stop maintain the 3 second distance rule.

But overall people really need to be learning life lessons and we’re not. I’ve talked a lot about electric vehicles and it looks like they’re not happening. This administration failed to push them and whether the people pushing will learn to back ott and let society decide or they’ll keep pushing it and they’ll just fail that much worse.

Overpopulation here may not be a problem if people learn how to be a good member of society instead of a criminal or an angry, impatient person in a hurry. The other aspect is people who are moving too slowly need to learn to move a bit faster. But it all depends on their level of experience.

Man made climate change is a lie, the cause of the Maui fires is due to power lines but climate clowns blame climate change.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2023/08/15/maui-fires-power-line-cause/

Climate change hysteria is just that, hysteria. The irony was 3 days ago the Washington Post was blaming climate change on Maui fires. Yet climate change wasn’t responsible it was power lines.

So what else are they lying to you about climate change? That we are not the cause of our or the fact that using fossil fuels is not causing climate change. I hope that the evil that has been plaguing us with these lies are finally dealt with.

Dear God, the climate hysteria is out of control and needs to stop….

Whether or not you think Climate Change is happening and humans are responsible is not an excuse to abandon fossil fuels. In fact with what’s already been happening, mass inflation fuel prices up to $4 a gallon or higher its pretty much clear, the climate hysteria needs to stop. Like really stop.

I won’t announce this to the climate hysteria people but here is the reality. We rely on fossil fuels and we’re not able to simply stop using them let alone do not have reliable alternatives. The climate hysteria however is being ramped up. While seeking alternatives is a must that doesn’t mean you have to force the population off of using fossil fuel devices.

The problem is that we had plenty of opportunity to put a stop to using fossil fuels before it got to this point where we won’t survive without it..

https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/twitter-revives-eerie-111-year-old-warning-about-burning-fossil-fuels_uk_64da3627e4b06b5d9bad4a6d

But we wait until society requires it and despite the fact that we’re told we won’t cut off fossil fuels until there is alternatives in place, that hasn’t happened and this is will be among the results of “climate action”.

https://thefederalistpapers.org/us/cameras-go-punish-drivers-name-climate-change-vigilantes-strike

And despite the fact these cameras were constantly vandalized, eventually we’ll be forced to give up our gas vehicles and they’ll tell us to walk if we can’t afford an electric vehicle. This is among the reasons why climate hysteria needs to stop. Even if we’re responsible the reality here is we’re 50 years out from having an economy that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels, let alone we built the infrastructure around gas powered vehicles not electric. A climate crisis is not an excuse to force the end of using fossil fuels.

Spending a ton of money, stepping on everyone’s toes to get off of fossil fuels is not the answer. Finding alternatives and offering them is all you can do. If people won’t do it, forcing it won’t make it any better and in fact this extreme push away from fossil fuels will collapse the economy. Don’t see it happening? Well when enough people refuse to give up on fossil fuels, it will collapse. And Americans are hard headed so is pretty much guaranteed you’ll have a war on your hands here.

Besides that, it’s most likely on purpose to create a system collapse. The biggest threat is these people are shaming Christians about this. Bullying Christians into believing man is causing climate change and we’re responsible for getting off of fossil fuels.

Christians along with everybody else is not obligated to get off of fossil fuels. Nobody is. It’s just the environmentalists, the rich and the left doing this. People stand to gain a massive amount of profits with this and potentially, our society will collapse. There has been talks we’re at the end of times. There may be no way out of this but I hope there is a way out but it’s what God wants to happen.

Either way, people need to stand strong here as we shouldn’t be forced out of our gas vehicles or gas appliances. Pray for our future because we’re dealing with evil right now. And it’s the climate change narrative, the people behind it and those who guilt trip others that they need to stop using fossil fuels. It’s just evil what they’re trying to do.

Biden fail: Electric vehicles are piling up, values are nosediving.

If the constant news reports didn’t already tell you about the shortcomings of electric vehicles well here is a big one, new electric vehicles are piling up, big time. And it’s only going to get worse. The Ford Mach E Mustang and the Lightning are not selling well including the Chevy Bolt.

Other automakers are also struggling to sell their EVs. The fact is Americans don’t want them. Already the used EVs are selling only at a measly 1% while new EVs sell at 7% and majority of that is fleet sales. Dealers are struggling to sell EVs while selling out of new and used gas vehicles.

Of course news outlets are underplaying this as usual because they’re trying to remain optimistic that sales will surely pick up. But it’s just foolish to think so as most American consumers are preferring to stick with what they know. The gasoline vehicle.

The Biden administration and the EPA wants over 50% EV sales by 2030 but being how it’s 2023 and 7% sales are electric and that’s even projected to drop due to resale value worries as the small amount of buyers are going to be disappointed with their EV purchase as over 50% of EV buyers often go back to gas because charging is such an inconvenience alon with other factors such as a fender bender totalling out the EV they’re switching back to gas.

So unless the Biden administration and EPA forces people to switch to EVs, 50% sales in 2030 is nowhere near achievable. In fact sales will be far worse off due to the extreme push towards EVs is already backfiring. People are finding out EVs are inconvenient and money pits. All the lies and deception in this is showing. Still we need to be vigilant in making sure we are not forced into this as most people are not going to be buying an EV.

The environmental climate change hysteria. It’s all based on lies and deception.

It’s been awhile since I posted anything but this past week the environmentists has been on a rampage. Even before then it was insane. The Greta Thunburg “world’s going to end in 5 years” has failed to occur. We’re still here but it’s been this way for many decades where predictions have failed. There is no man made climate change occuring. However they covered up this fact by deleting Greta’s doomsday post. More denial, more deception.

The wildfires in Canada? For starters it’s natural. Second, if you actually kept the forests maintained you wouldn’t run into this problem. Let alone there’s a good chance that the wildfires was set deliberately as a hoax to get people scared and to try to keep the lie alive. As a result the wildfires did cause severe weather to happen in America after the country was under a smoke air quality advisory.

Many people in Canada were confused though as they apparently didn’t experience anything. Whether they were not in the affected area or whatever its puzzling. Then there is the lack of urgency for the people pushing climate change to give up their private planes and mansions.

Either they’re just still greedy or there is no  man made climate change and there’s plenty of evidence showing there isn’t a man made climate crisis happening. Whether people believe it or not but going by the Bible, with the Great Flood and Sodom and Gomorrah we’re sinning greatly. People choose to do wrong to one another and the extreme climate is God’s way of trying to get our attention.

If we have learned from our past its the sinning that leads to disaster. This is far more probable. However that’s not what these people are doing, they learned nothing. Instead they try to profit off of the impending disaster that may happen.

Climate change isn’t going to care whether you drive an electric or gas vehicle let alone using “green energy”. If we actually are experiencing climate change then going green won’t matter. For some strange reason the people trying to profit on this climate change hysteria think that making profit will have any meaning.

In fact, it won’t matter other than you will suffer for eternity for decieving the people. They have a chance to come clean and tell the truth but they want to keep lying to themselves and others. When electric vehicles, windmills and solar won’t protect anyone from climate change they’ll wish they listened to the naysayers.

This whole plan would be more believable had the climate doomsayers gave up their private jets, and their luxurious lifestyle using that money to give to the poor but now it’s far too late. The jig is already up. Also it would be believable had they actually sell actual climate change protective technologies, or work towards this but instead its electric vehicles and green energy. They’re trying to push electric vehicles and green energy at a fast pace where people don’t have time to react. Because if it was done slowly then the lie wouldn’t work. More people would be aware of it.

Realistically electric vehicles are not suitable replacements to gasoline vehicles. Getting off fossil fuels is at least going to take half a century or more. In a sane society we would allow the free market to take control but instead this insane push is trying to force the market to electric vehicles and alternative energy, while not allowing the people to adapt quickly enough. Most people want to stick with using fossil fuel.

Man made climate change doesn’t make sense. All the C02 that fossil fuel puts into the air is just plant food. So nothing about the reasoning behind climate change makes sense along with the “solution”. All it really is that the environmentists have been trying to get people off of fossil fuels because its “bad”. They’re too blind to see that they’ve also been deceived. Or that they don’t care and is taking advantage of the deception.

All this needs to stop because the lie of man made climate change is hurting people. Forcing people to “go green” just shows these people have way too much power over us. And pushing climate change hysteria is just over the top evil and wrong. There is nothing wrong with allowing those that want electric vehicles or green energy, the technology will be available for those that want them. However this extreme push has electric vehicles sitting on dealer lots unsold. It’s a total waste and it shows the other fraud that electric vehicles are replacing gas. There just isn’t enough interest in electric vehicles and climate change hysteria won’t make them sell any faster.

With this current administration in office, we’re not able to get a handle on this large deception of climate change. Its huge and despite false claims God will pave the way to the truth.

Proverbs 19:9 ESV

A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will perish.

The U.S. government is defaulting on debt, blame the EV and green energy push!

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/02/15/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-announces-new-standards-and-major-progress-for-a-made-in-america-national-network-of-electric-vehicle-chargers/#:~:text=President%20Biden’s%20Bipartisan%20Infrastructure%20Law,%2C%20critical%20minerals%2C%20and%20materials.

Well here we go again another catastrophe done by our own government but what I am criticizing is the EV push. Spent $7.5 billion on charging stations and even more billions on EVs themselves. This administration needs to get slammed big time on this and be held responsible for this mess they put themselves into.

As a result government resources may not get the funding they need and I am blaming this administration for pushing EVs. When less than 2% drive an EV it makes it far worse. Yes the U.S. is defaulting but the 2% of Americans can charge their EVs. Its disgusting, disgraceful, vile evil. People on social security may not get their checks in the mail but EV owners get to charge their EVs.

That’s just very evil.

Disappointed with your electric vehicle?, you need to speak up and start fighting the gas/diesel bans and restrictions because EV problems are going to get far worse.

Start off by talking to your state representative about this and don’t let them bully you, telling you “oh electric vehicles will get better”. No.

They’re not ready now, and they have so many problems despite only 1-2% of Americans owning one its complete B.S. to say they’re getting better. They’re not. Electric vehicles are getting worse, with the fires, charging stations are damaging the vehicles, not to mention plagued with so many issues that will frustrate you out of your battery powered vehicle.

But that’s not enough to keep this administration from forcing it, by allowing the EPA to mandate gasoline (internal combustion engine) vehicles out of existence we need to fight back, hard. Start by talking to your state representatives, talk to the automakers, and if you can, start filing lawsuits against both the EPA and the politicians pushing this.

The GOP isnt doing enough, let alone they’re just screwing around and well, we had enough of this. They’re already have schemed to get out of gas vehicles and Californias insane pollution policies already lost them 77,000 truckers/trucks because they don’t have money to make them complaint.

And the lies, oh I’m sick of them. The left, political leaders continue to deceive people and companies into this electric vehicle nightmare that should be held accountable but since we don’t hold voter fraud accountable due to so much deception that it’s just, evil having its fun. I’m sick of a lot of things like the impatient drivers, and that’s another thing that needs addressing but I’m not saving them from having to walk like the rest of us that this gas vehicle ban us going to do. Its because innocent people do not need this happening to them.

And I don’t want it to happen to me either as I require a gas vehicle to make a living. Electric vehicles will not do it, charging is a pain among other problems EVs have. Bottom line is people need to be fighting these mandates and getting this administration kicked out of office because otherwise we’re going to have another 4 years of this mess and not enough good politicians are in office to address the voting fraud. This needs to change.

Only 19% of Americans want an EV. The excessive money waste on electric vehicles. 41% are on the fence, do not buy an EV!

First of all, if you are on the fence on buying an EV, save your money. Sticking with gasoline is your best bet. Electric vehicles are not practical. Despite the pro EVers liking them, charging them is the biggest headache.

Fast charging doesn’t always work, in fact you can’t always charge them and sometimes they might even kill your EV. Not only that, they’re not good in the cold unless you’re tethered to an electric outlet, it doesn’t make much sense to buy one in colder climates. Now I know that some people are willing to deal with these shortcomings and there is a ton more in which one of them is there is thousands of used EVs (some are lightly used, from 2023 and have less than 10,000 miles on them).

I’m not trying to hold people back from buying one, I’m trying to show the unethical reasons why you shouldn’t buy one namely this administration is spending too much money on them, forcing the auto industry to gear towards them which ultimately, EVs are likely to fail anyway. Most people are not willing to deal with these shortcomings of EVs and thats going to be a big mess especially when this administration is also trying to regulate people out of gas vehicles, or ICE.

This economical suicidal mess that this administration is doing by forcing people out of gas vehicles is just beyond wrong, its evil. Whether it’s by a tax or they restrict gas vehicle sales it’s preventing those who need a gas vehicle to get around as a gas vehicle is an essential tool.

But that’s not going to stop these people. Of course if companies resisted this move ahead of time and if consumers were wise enough to never buy an EV we probably wouldn’t be faced with this situation. Every year the sales of EVs go up and there isn’t much we can do about that. And some people really do want an EV and is not willing to sacrifice that to get rid of our corrupt political leaders.

And that’s fine, however this is a test of our own morality and besides the shortcomings of EVs which will continue to escalate the other aspect is the environmental damage we are doing to humans and their environment when getting EV materials. While some people may have health problems around ICE vehicles we also have medical care and you can also center your life away from gas fumes. No one is telling you have no choice but to deal with that but at the same time you can’t get get rid of them easily which is why some states are trying to ban new gas vehicle sales.

It may help lessen your gas fume pollution but increases everyone elses stress levels because they spent time, money and effort into the gas engine. But besides that the majority doesnt want an EV and again, those on the fence shouldn’t be buying an EV. In fact get off the fence and say no to EVs. That would really benefit our country and we then can get rid of the corruption in the political system.

All this going with EVs is just enabling more corruption and more evil. And I refuse to side with evil. Oil companies are not saints either but we need oil. We do need to lessen our needs on it but doing evil to get rid of evil isn’t the way. We get rid of evil by doing good. We stick with what we already have and then do something good with it. Synthetic fuels and hydrogen are two better solutions and we won’t need to force it because many people will already go for it. And we should go for the American oil companies instead of relying on foreign oil and investing money there so people have affordable fuel while they would invest in hydrogen and synthetic fuels.

Leave the electric vehicles to those that want them but I pray people see the evil that has infested America and the world before it’s too late. Because otherwise pushing for electric vehicles is just basically the same as siding with Satan.
