Remember they will always have enough electricity for Amazon, Wal-Mart, data centers, and other corporations/corporate interests. But you will always be taking too much or needing to cut back.

The difference with EVs vs data centers is data centers are a constant draw and the limitation there is grid capacity. EVs aren’t always charging which is an invariable draw on the grid like the AC unit for a house. Power plants need to provide exactly as much power to the grid as we use to get 60 Hz. Give too much >60, give too little <60, stray too far and bad shit happens. The grid needed to upgrade for both EVs and data centers but increasing supply is easier then getting better at adapting.

He did not make "his fortune" by selling EVs. He grifted his way through capitalism using his privilege and inheritance using the auto/tech industries as mediums. He didn't build those cars, his minimum wage workers did. No capitalist oligarch ever made "their" fortune completely from scratch. It always comes from wrongly claiming others' labor as your own.
