    What really sucks is that we are penalizing newer, greener technologies in order to prop up older non-profitable technologies.

    There is a huge subsidy in the US for coal power plants. That needs to wind down, preferably in the next 4 years.

    A few states charge higher registration fees for hybrid and electric vehicles, while at the same time suppressing or almost eliminating the gas tax during post-pandemic inflation.

    Certain groups are dead set on boiling the the frog here, without even realizing that they are a lobster in the same pot of water.
