Um, no.
This is where we are headed without armed intervention against those who wield their ballots against the US Constitution:
First the automakers are ‘saved’ by the behemoth government.
Then, if you want to exercise your right to travel NOT on public transportation or gig services, you agree to deduct your paycheck for LFG (lease from government) to grant you rights to use an EV (with limited range and social credit limitations).
This is where I butt heads with FReepers on EVs:
If the government is pushing it in opposition to the market, it is universally BAD.
EVs under the current regime are a symptom of the looming death of the Republic.
You do have a good point, mine was from a free market perspective growing up in Ford-ish family in the Detroit area. However that idea appears to be a thing of the past these days. I have stated many times on this board that this country is going to collapse under it’s $40 trillion debt by the end of the decade anyway. Have no idea what comes after that but the EVs and the market for them will be gone soon enough.
