So they will declare that your car becomes illegal at a certain date. It will be worth nothing at that point. They will have stolen money from you.

Plus, at that time, all the electric cars will be connected to Big Central Computer, benevolently named “Traffic Control System”. That computer system will monitor your driving and send you a bill for miles driven. You will pay additional taxes if you drive “too many miles”. The system will disable your car during periods of “declared emergency,” so you will be limited to drive only where the system allows you to drive.

Do not doubt me (thanks, Rush). They will do this. They aren’t going to install any system without taking full advantage of its capabilities to take away as many of our rights as they can.

Just think of all the jobs that will be created in the environmental/remediation sector when all gas stations are closed and the underground tanks need to be dug up.

I don’t see how going to clean is even feasible. If every car was electric, every service area on 95 would have to have their own power plant to supply the electric. And where would that power come from? Fossil fuels?
And you would have to stop at every service area to top off your battery or sit at one for 8 hrs if you’re empty. Imagine the log jams.

It’s not just freedom of movement, it’s centralization of control of electrical power. If they can force everyone to charge their motors from a wall outlet, they can subsequently control the availability of that power. Over your monthly electricity usage limit? Aww, your power is now off until the first of next month. Enjoy the stone age!

"There is no way the United States can reduce its greenhouse gas emissions without looking at how Americans drive," Schumer says.

Why don't you go to China, Schumer, the #1 polluter in the world, and tell THEM to cut back their greenhouse gas emissions.

Or is this A-OK?

Let Chuck Schumer start by never using a combustion vehicle ever again, starting today. Let his protection detail drive one as well.

Let the U.S. Secret Service drive Jao Bai-Din around in an electric vehicle, again, starting today.

If the Democrats continue until 2040, they will be absolute rulers of a smoldering ruin.

Yes, that’s what I see as the goal of their plan. Want to go somewhere? We’ll have to look at your social score, your energy usage, and the importance of you and your trip.

I keep telling folks that one of the side effects of this pandemic is the restriction of travel. The days of carefree tourist travel by the masses is done.

I never understood why people do that with a perfectly clean car.

Kind of like parachute jumping from a perfectly good airplane.

It’s all about justifying government subsidies to the likes of Tesla to drive up their already overvalued stock prices IMO. It has nothing to do with greenhouse gasses.
