But I digress, what is the problem that your government is trying to solve by forcing you to purchase an EV?
I have no bone to pick with you, I'm neutral on the issue of EVs vs ICE. There are many problems with our government. One is, that they're hiding the issue that they want to get rid of private ownership of all vehicles; they're just focusing on ICE now. Even Elon Musk has stated that the government should not subsidize EVs, but Biden is hell-bent on doing so for GM and Ford while excluding Tesla. Biden is a hypocrite, subsidizing GM to build EVs while saying he is for "green" energy, which is plain BS. All this government interference with the market is just plain wrong. All it does is to wreak havoc with the free market and their R&D efforts.
