It doesn't get much more obscene than taxpayers subsidizing cars for wealthy people.

That's Deep State.

FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Patriots are reminded that government-manufactured climate crisis (imo) is a state power issue, the states never expressly constitutionally giving the feds the specific power to use finding remedies for junk science issues as an excuse for appropriating unconstitutional, unaccountable federal taxes.

In other words, "climate crisis" is a tested politically correct Democratic excuse to exploit post-17th Amendment ratification voters / taxpayers who have probably never been taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers as the delegates to the Constitutional Convention had intended for those powers to be understood.

In fact, the congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, the main author of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, had clarified that the delegates to the Constitutional Convention had left the care of the people uniquely to the states, not the feds.

”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)

Corrections, insights welcome.

Also, Trump's red tsunami of patriot supporters are reminded that they must vote twice this election year. Your first vote is to primary career RINO incumbents in federal and state governments. Your second vote is to replace outgoing Democrats and RINOs with Trump-endorsed patriot candidates.

Again, insights welcome.

The only places with parking lots full of Teslas and Mercedes will be Gummit Office Buildings and Schools. The rest of Les Misérables will be full of old beaters.

Only wealthy people can afford these EVs. That means a tax credit to the rich.

yes, there are some limitations though, unlike the current credit.

The proposed bill would exclude buyers of electric cars priced higher than $55,000 and electric trucks, vans and SUVs above $80,000. It also would include income restrictions: Buyers with household incomes of $150,000 or higher—$300,000 for married couples—wouldn’t qualify for the credit on new EV purchases. The limits on used purchases are $75,000 for individuals and $150,000 for married couples on qualifying used vehicles.

There was a recent piece about how the new Bentley EVs due out in 2025 would come at $250+k BUT also have the $7.5k tax rebate as well. For all of the screams by the LEFT about how the wealthy get tax advantages ... on this?

Crickets!

Why would a electric vehicle need a $7,500 tax credit if they are so popular?

I have a gas powered car. Where is my tax credit?
