Battery based electric vehicles of today and tomorrow.

[Doughknob]

Giving EVs a boost to reach market sustainability is one thing, but we are well past that point.

And u know this how?

This will be things like higher food prices, or more poor people dying in unheated houses, or other hard to connect things like that.

Huh? Explain

I saw where Sweden is putting in electric roads which reminds me of the Aurora slot car set I had as a kid. Just don't cross those roads barefoot or empty your bladder on them.
They say it would cost $4.7 trillion here in the USA to do that but with $30T debt no big deal...we just need more presses running.

Bah, kids!

We learned more about electricity with Lionel trains.

Are EVs currently subsidized by the American taxpayer?

Yes as long as it's not a Tesla or a GM product.

OH BOY ....

Just seems unfair that people unable to afford them have to subsidize them.
EVs are still largely a wealthy persons vehicle

As ICEVs before Henry Ford.

When have poor people bought new cars. I have bought one new car in my life.

It was 2150 dollars and I was making $1.75 per hour.

But your dancing around my question.
Why should low income income earning Americans, barely able to afford an old ICEV, have to subsidize EVs for rich people?
