Come 2028 I confer the great EV dream will be all but over, the worlds' resources depleting at an alarming rate for the batteries bc there won't be a suitable replacement for the lithium packs. Plenty of oil on the planet to keep things sustainable as they are and a return to sanity.

Yes, but Chicago is the ultimate extreme example in the history of our country and probably the world. Yes, there are other extreme examples, but I would put Chicago at the top of that. Either way, my prediction is solely based on regardless of all the laws, these idiots pass, the reality of the situation won’t be able to back up their laws and they will have to reverse them. It won’t be the first time our government or any government stepped into something they know zero about only to have to revert back.

I could be wrong but a guess..about 15% of reps/ dems us or lab v con uk may have green leanings
Both parties have to push through the green agenda to secure those votes. The remainder 85% will vote loyally. Tail wags the dog. |

What I'm saying is we've had idiotic laws and policies that have been implemented with the failures being immediate and in everyone's faces. Yet nothing has been done to reverse course. And as I've said there's been a doubling down on these failed policies. I'm firmly convinced that the only way many of these policies will change is when everything around us degrades into total chaos. |

The goal is to limit people's movement. It's a win-win for the gubment - cars are too expensive so it pushes people to public transit. Or, cars are affordable and the only thing available (due to federal laws) is electric, subscription model cars. Or people just choose not to go anywhere at all (15 minute cities). All of these achieve the end goal.

Another thing to consider is taxes. The Feds and states have gotten used to the taxes applied per gallon of gasoline purchased. Don't think that these taxes are just going to just disappear. It's going to be applied somewhere and the most logical is going to be on electric consumption. With gas if things get expensive or times are tight, one could limit the amount of driving. Try that with electricity where it doesn't matter if you cut back on how much driving you do as your non EV consumption is still going to be taxed.
