Let's be honest, shall we? Many if not most liberals actually love sky-high gas prices because they view them as a painful necessity to "transition" away from fossil fuels. Joe Biden essentially said this a few days ago. He said they're part of an "incredible transition."
Of course, liberals don't care that doing so now is reckless and dangerous, since there's no renewable energy source even on the distant horizon that can replace oil, coal, and natural gas. No plane or cargo truck can run on solar power. No tanker, no armored vehicle, and no helicopter can run on solar power. But liberals don't care about facts; they only care about how a policy makes them feel.
They "feel" good about using billions of tax dollars to subsidize electric vehicles, never mind that 80% of our electricity comes from natural gas, coal, nuclear power, and petroleum. If you drive an electric car, 60% of your "fuel" comes from natural gas, coal, and petroleum, and another 20% comes from nuke p;ower--your "green" vehicle is using lots of fossil fuel and nuke power, but you just don't see it because those sources have already been used to generate most of the electricity that you're using to power your vehicle.
