Re: $5.00 per gallon gas
I have invested my money into North America's largest manufacturer of electric school buses and electric commercial vehicles. Lion Electric (LEV) manufactures in both Canada and the USA and is building it's own battery factory in Quebec.
Orders far exceed manufacturing capability.Comment

Re: $5.00 per gallon gas
Joe Biden has abandoned the black community. Promises made, promises broken. Biden's response to the black community is to buy an electric vehicle.
Many of these voters will soon join the republican party.
'We need help right now' | People of color hit hardest by inflation, gas prices
"High gas prices are not making it any easier for people to live their daily lives," community activist Samual Brown said.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Gas prices in the U.S. spiked long before Russia invaded Ukraine. But, the price at the pump has spiraled even faster since the start of the war.
According to AAA, the national gas price average stood at $4.32 on Monday. California is leading the nation with the highest gas price, averaging $5.74. Gas prices tend to be higher in California than other states. That's, partially, due to higher taxes for infrastructure and environmental fees
As gas prices continue to climb, many people, particularly in historically marginalized communities, are trying figure out how to make ends meet.
Samual Nathaniel Brown lives in Sacramento. After spending nearly 25 years in prison, he turned away from crime to become a leader and activist in Black communities. As the co-founder of the nonprofit Anti-Violence Safety and Accountability Project, Brown is on a mission to break the cycle of violence and address its harms by dismantling systemic racism.
"High gas prices are not making it any easier for people to live their daily lives," Brown said. "We're always budgeting in our communities. We ration out how much are we going to spend on gas a month."
When Brown was released from prison in December, the state of California gave him $200 for basic needs. Under California's existing law, the state gives newly released prisoners $200 through an allowance program - often referred to as 'gate money.'
"With the increase in gas prices, rent, food, and everything else, what we're provided with to survive makes us feel like we are not wanted in society," Brown said. "I've been able to survive because I have a strong support network by the grace of God. I work hard every day. Nevertheless, even with that hard work, it's still challenging."
According to a recent report by the U.S. Department of Labor, inflation is also causing consumer prices to soar. That includes goods and services, like food and energy. The U.S. Department of Labor defines inflation as the overall general upward price movement of goods and services in an economy.
A 2021 report by Bank of America shows inflation hits communities of color more than others. Researchers also found that Blacks, Latinos, and people living in rural areas spend the majority of their money on goods and services that have seen the most price inflation, such as energy, food, cars, and household items.
