Politicians and activists who want all cars to go electric are guilty of magical thinking. Electric car sales are up 66% this year. President Biden says the future is "electric… and there’s no turning back.” California and New York are banning sales of new gas-powered vehicles. We’re told they’ll help us use less oil. But most of what politicians, activists, and electric car sellers say about electric cars is just wrong. In this video, and a second one coming soon, I show you 5 inconvenient facts about electric cars.

Activists and politicians love electric cars so much so that they want to take away your other choices But their green dream is just a fantasy. Electric cars are cool. I’d buy one if I could only get the Tesla dealer to call me back. But when it comes to the environment, electric cars aren’t even close to what activists and politicians promise. In this video, I continue where part I left off, with 3 more inconvenient facts about electric cars. Part 1 is here: https://youtu.be/z2HneqfZGsM

A lot of what the media and politicians tell us about hurricanes is just WRONG. ———— To make sure you see the new weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe ———— Hurricane Ian destroyed parts of Florida. As always, we're told that only FEMA can provide relief. That storms are worse because of climate change. That “price gouging" is evil. That federal flood insurance is necessary, and helps poor people. Little of that is true. Until we learn the myths about storms, we’ll make the same costly mistakes again and again.

Dozens of states expanded school choice in the last two years, allowing more students to leave government-run schools. But David Walrod, the president of a teachers' union in Fairfax, Virginia, says the new school choice programs are harmful. We debate. Many kids have good reasons to leave government-run schools. Such schools often needlessly shut down for Covid, and stayed closed for two years. Some indoctrinate kids. Many leave bad teachers on the job. Many spend absurd amounts of money. (Fairfax, Virginia, schools spend more than $300k per classroom.) But Walrod says that school choice will create too many different schools, and duplicate wasteful bureaucracies. You can watch our debate in the video above.

Millions of people listen to Adam Carolla’s podcasts, attend his live shows, and read his books. He once hosted hit shows like “Loveline" and "The Man Show.” Over the years, Carolla’s comedy has caused controversy. Now his opinions make people angry. “If AOC were fat and in her 60's,” Carolla says, “no one would listen to her." That comment drove leftists crazy. But Carolla won’t back down. When critics demand apologies, he tells me, they really want power. "They want you to apologize,” Carolla says, "because they want dominion over you. And once you apologize, they just keep coming back.” He gives examples in his new book, “Everything Reminds Me of Something: Advice, Answers…but No Apologies."

Obama's Show “The G Word” Is Big Government Propaganda

Did you hear? Netflix paid Barack and Michelle Obama millions of dollars to produce movies and TV shows. Their latest documentary series, “The G Word,” is astoundingly stupid. “The G Word” is hosted by comedian Adam Conover. President Obama approved it, and appears in it sometimes. But instead of using his time with the president for something valuable, Conover wastes it on silly stunts like making sandwiches. Instead of doing honest reporting, Obama’s 6-part series pushes big government propaganda. Give me a break. I debunk it.

Megyn Kelly On Media Bias

Megyn Kelly is well known for working at Fox News & NBC. Now she’s her own boss, and feels free to call out bias wherever she sees it. Today, big media has an agenda. It’s not just, "give the news." Fox News and a few others spin right. Almost everyone else spins left. That’s why I’m glad we have independent journalists like Megyn Kelly. We worked together at Fox, and then she went to NBC. She felt pressure from her bosses to stick to a certain agenda. Not pleasing the network got her fired from NBC. Now she has her own podcast, The Megyn Kelly Show. “I’m totally uncancellable,” she tells me. “That was my only mission in coming back into our business. I didn’t want a corporate overlord.”

This Thanksgiving, Say Thank You to "Private Property”

Did you know that the pilgrims almost starved after they arrived at Plymouth Rock? That's because they were forced to farm "collectively." The corporation that funded the expedition said, "grow food together. Divide the harvest equally." This is a terrible idea. It creates what economists call the "tragedy of the commons." When you share property and the results of your work, people farm until the land is barren, don't work as hard, or steal food from others. Young people from Students For Liberty take part in an experiment to demonstrate this "tragedy of the commons." It shows the solution is private property, which is what saved the pilgrims. Governor William Bradford finally decided to "assign each family a parcel of land." Once the pilgrims had property rights, they became much more productive and brought in huge harvests -- which they were then able to share with the Indians. So this Thanksgiving feast, don't forget to say "thanks, private property!"

Classic Stossel: Makers vs Takers

Some people say, either you’re a maker … or a taker. And today makers and takers are battling for America’s soul. Arthur Brooks says "It’s a battle because we’re deciding on our culture... Because the government is threatening to take us from a maker nation into taker nation status." He points out "60% of Americans take more out of the public finance system than they pay in. They get more in public services than they pay in taxes. " Star Parker was a taker. She lived off welfare for 7 years. She says the welfare bureaucracy encouraged her to be irresponsible… and stay dependent. She says "It's so much easier to take than to make. I never even thought about it. I think that that's one of the greatest tragedies of becoming a taker is you don't think about that somebody else had to make this." A Classic Stossel from 2009.

One of the things that’s great about America is its entrepreneurial spirit. America is a good place to do business. More than almost any other nation, America both encourages and rewards creativity, risk-taking, and the entrepreneurial spirit. In this video, I start my own “Stossel Store." The business is something of a failure, which is also part of what’s great about America: you can try here and fail and still try again. A Classic Stossel from 2010.
