Here's the weird thing: if they raise prices and we savagely tax all profits above a certain amount, it ultimately benefits EV people to a massive extent.

Even as a petrol car family, I'm hugely in favour of that plan.

EVs are a stop gap measure. We need better public transit infrastructure and better railways.

We had a great public transit system when most people lived rurally, but that age is behind us. Most people live in urban areas now. Urban areas don't need transit. You can walk everywhere. That's the whole reason cities were created.
