LMAOOO MUSKY IS SO MAD ABOUT IT NOW
Musk has said he supports ending subsidies for EVs, oil and gas.
“Yeah, but not my subsidies!”
Republicans hate it when Democrats use the same tactics they do.
But this is what they wanted. They wanted to fight dirty, well, they’ve got it. They wanted a government that played favorites and picked winners and losers.
Kiss reasonable democracy that doesn’t play favorites goodbye, this is what you asked for, Republicans.
It always boils down to “rules for thee, not for me.”
Good. Musk’s companies sure do rely on a lot of corporate socialism.
Good. Kia, Hyundai, Toyota, and others have been as well when their efficiency ratios aren’t great.
Tesla was one of the very few federal options, too. I still want an EV and Cali might be my only shot at affording one (but honestly I’d prefer seeing renters assistance as a higher priority to fight homelessness first, though. Too bad that’s not popular with neolibs)
It’d be coming from the cap and trade sustainability fund, so it couldn’t be used for housing, unless you could show that housing would reduce emissions. Still a lot better ways to spend the money, solar and wind, grid scale battery capacity, mass transit and high speed rail investment etc.
Why? I read the article and I’m not exactly sure what these proposed rebates are for or what qualifies a car or person to be eligible for them.
I didn’t even see in the article anything that said Tesla would be excluded, other than a non-quote of maybe. Maybe I’m just missing something obvious.
