If the current crop of Democrats had been in power forty years ago, they would have mandated that everyone use Betamax instead of VHS.
And 8-track instead of CDs
Of course, I also used OS/2 and Windows Phones, so, uh....
I remember receiving the advice of getting a Windows phone. I discounted it...my wife bought into it. Her phone lasted around two years before she dumped it.
Don’t you love Joe Biden, creates a rule and acts as if it was a law! Typical Lib, just implement your agenda anyway you can! Can’t get congress to pass the law, just create a rule and We’re off to the races….
I also had Beta, but I had a VHS too. Beta Hi-Fi was game changing. Listening to Raiders of the Lost Ark or Uncommon Valor through my Pioneer receiver was mind blowing. Then VHS came out with its own Hi-Fi system and that cut out some of Beta’s prestige. But VHS Hi-Fi was never as good as Beta’s sound quality.
PDJT Right Again!!!

Sorry, we can’t afford to subsidize your fantasies
The goal was unrealistic to begin with. Those when confronted with the reality of the situation, mostly would say it was a “stretch goal” that was not really intended to be met, but was put in place to make progress.
That kind of federal regulation is just utter rubbish.
A bipartisan overturning. It must be enacted.
Some Democrats join Republicans in voting to strike down Biden’s EV mandate
Oh, bullcrap. These savings either never materialize or are much less than they claim.
If the current crop of Democrats had been in power 40 years ago, millions of us wouldn’t be breathing by now.
The head engineer explained to me how Betamax was superior to VHS in terms of visual and technical quality. Two things killed it off in the retail marketplace. The first is that the head of Sony believed that nobody would want to record more than an hour's worth of programming. Something that VHS could do handily.
The second is that VHS became the format of choice for the porn industry.

Excellent. Exactly my thoughts ad soon as he did it in the first place. This is the discussion needing to be made. Why even acknowledge it as having any lawful power in the first place. There is no legally binding law to overturn. Now it has to go through the Senate and Biden has to sign it. And if this doesn’t happen, which it won’t, the mandate will be accepted as law because they failed to contest something that was not law in the first place.
These need to stop. Legally they are only symbolic and have no lawful powers.
I seem to recall that NO PRESIDENT has ever been declared a KING. I also recall that OUR Constitution expressly does not empower an ELECTED President to act as a KING.
So, Joey Crappy Pants the Pervert, Pedophile, and Sexual Deviant has NEVER BEEN nor WILL EVER be KING.
This Mandate BS that Democrats and Joey’s Diaper think are somehow “allowed” are flat out wrong. However, the Compromised, Infested, Indoctrinated, Liberal Marxist, COURTS have allowed this to occur.
True. An explicit threat should be made to heavily reduce the EPA budget if they do not follow directives of the House.
Furthermore, take the climate weenies at their word and start to zero out the EPA budget over 7 years since the planet will be unsavable no matter what the EPA does.
EC
So has the porn industry adopted EV’s as the vehicle of choice? Important information!
