The current and future grid in most places will not be able to support each home running 25 refrigerators—not even close. Just look at California, where the grid is already buckling under the existing load.
Massie claims, correctly, in my view, that the notion of widespread adoption of electric vehicles anytime soon is a dangerous fantasy based on political science, not sound engineering.

Just wait to you add in the data mining electrical costs. Hoo-boy are we gonna need nuclear reactors.
I’d rather have the 25 refrigerators to keep all my Schlitz in.
