    You want Amerikkka to lead maybe subsidize EVs as well?

    Why can’t we all win? (Ide rather bus/rail and walkable cities)

      The government does subsidize EVs.

      Additionally even used EVs are subsidized.

      Between federal and state tax credits, as well as utility company rebates, my folks just got over 5k back for a used Nissan leaf. They were able to trade in their old clunker, netting a profit of a few hundred dollars to upgrade to a practical used EV.
