VIDEO EXCERPTS: Today I would like to make a video about the situation here in Europe. In this article, they are saying that April could become more difficult economically to survive than March. The situation on the energy markets is becoming increasingly tense.

[...] Also, the European Union is doubling tariffs on steel imports from China. Cheap steel from Asia is crippling the domestic steel industry. European manufacturers are also suffering from high energy prices and are also affected by the US tariffs. At the same time, converting energy intensive steel production to green energy is very expensive. Therefore, manufacturers are not operating at full capacity.

Germany wanted to ban combustion engine cars, but now they have ended this ban, because it's simply not possible. There's just not enough of infrastructure for electric cars and a lot of people are just simply not buying electric cars.

Apparently in Great Britain, a lot of people start stealing fuel from gas stations. So here they're saying that Britain's fuel shock has rich and poor stealing petrol.

[...] The economic downturn in Germany is driving up the number of company bankruptcies. For many businesses, the cost pressure has become so intense that their financial reserves are no longer sufficient. Even before the war, energy costs were a key business risk for almost half of all companies. It is alarming that the spiraling burden has recently accelerated. The energy price shock and the supply chain disruptions are driving costs even higher. No relief is expected in near future.

All right, the next story that I want to show you is in Austria, the government has planned to ban under 14 year olds from social media. They say it's important for the health of their children, and that can be true actually. But critics have said, how can I prove as an adult that I am over 14, and that we will be required to download digital identity to verify our age on social media...

This is it for Europe ... https://youtu.be/5QYBTjWUDUI

How long ago were people saying that electrical infrastructure would severely limit EV adoption? 9_9

It's not just Electrical infrastructure thats the problem. It's raw resources that are used to build cars.

The entire capitalitistic model that was built implying that a persons freedom and power comes from the ownership of their own personal motor vehicle itself is in jeopardy. Producing vehicles, funding the fuel, the insurance, the roads et al... that's all untenable.

Unfortunately it means a huge change, not just in the way that people think in regards to what they base their freedom and power on, but the entire marketing model thats been brainwashing the masses for decades.

People will not learn however until more wars are fought over the raw resources that those companies caveat thanks to the mass marketted need. Thats unfortunately the future, which is closer than ever.
Probably easy to say living on a tiny island where everything is walking distance in your town.
Now imagine your country is the size of the entire EU, with far more space between residential and commercial areas.

Unless you live in a large city with a subway or el train, a car is a necessity in the US.
