Everyone gets free birth control, mandatory vasectomy’s and problems go away. PEOPLE are the freakin problem folks. Geezs#5 doesn't do any good if the person using them sells #4 to somebody else so they can keep driving it.
Not to mention the fact that Tesla is selling every car they can make right now with no subsidy.
No but shortage of supply does. Factories have had to shut down at times due to covid and there's a shortage of workers in all stages of the food supply.Don't think that pent up demand explains food inflation. I don't know about you, but I was always buying food. Even during lock downs.
As I said, there's no pent up demand for food!No but shortage of supply does. Factories have had to shut down at times due to covid and there's a shortage of workers in all stages of the food supply.
But if I buy a zero emissions vehicle and my current ice goes into the used market then it will replace an older vehicle that pollutes more.#5 doesn't do any good if the person using them sells #4 to somebody else so they can keep driving it.
With electricity, of course!And no one has any idea if you replace all ICE how you going to charge all these EVs
Actually they do as it cuts US oil use by 30%, eliminating need for oil imports and the strategic threat that oil imports represent to US as we see from $17t in oil war debt to pay for 40 years US troops in Middle East on a war footing.EV's are NOT going to stop us from going to war in the Middle East for OIL
Plugging them in works just fine.And no one has any idea if you replace all ICE how you going to charge all these EVs
You won't find an economist on either side who does not admit that tax subsidies will increase the buying behaviors being subsidized.Ergo, credits will have zero influence on EV adoption during the period that the credits will apply.
Mostly at home. Very few people drive more than 200 miles a day. Also it's going to be 15-20 years until a majority of ice vehicle have been replaced. Probably even longer than that because it's going to take 5 - 10 years for them to become the majority of new sales and currently the average car age is 12 years.And no one has any idea if you replace all ICE how you going to charge all these EVs
Huh?1. Problem We need to greatly accelerate EV adoption in US.
2.Solution (partial). Generous subsidies will increase EV adoption in the US.
True, currently EV tax credits won't help sell more EVs in the short term due to constrained supply, but it does allow manufacturers to sell them at higher costs and increased profit (as has been mentioned several times in this thread. That increases the investments manufacturers make in EV technology and boost supply in the long run. Exactly the effect we want.Huh?
1. Ev's are not sitting on car lots covered in dust
2. Most if not all EV manufacturers are sold out for the next three years
You do gotta point there. If we are going to be honest about it. ?Huh?
