“Where the hell is Congress???”
Congress agrees with this, all of Congress. The automakers have been forced into EV manufacturing. In order to keep the donors from the auto makers from losing their shirts, the uniparty is going to force EVs on us, even if they don’t really work.
The DEGERATE Party and all its enablers are what is wrong with this Nation.
98% hybrids and 2% EVs may work.
But of course the climate change crisis is a fraud, and we need to get a new President who will acknowledge that fact!
How much of this is related to China building EV plants in Mexico?
Let’s phase pervert jojo and his corrupt buddies out instead.
Congress is busy making sure EPA is fully funded so there won’t be any delay in cramming this abomination down the throats of the peons.
This is the welcome mat being laid out for the bloodbath Trump spoke about. American auto industry and UAW will vote for Biden and they will become extinct. We will all be driving Chinese EV’s because we can’t build them without batteries from China.
SCOTUS needs to get off it’s collective and heavily cossetted backsides to rule on the Chevron revisit RFN.
The regulatory fiat rules need to STOP.
You’ll eat bugs and like it!
More to the point, “Where’s the grid?”
“Sweeping” is the term accompanying communist initiatives. “Controversial’ is used for ours. They used to also use “broad” to applaud their insanities, but the feminists screamed.
I will keep the cars I have running until they force them off the road or ban the sale of gasoline. I’m not so old that I believe I will pass naturally before they try to do this. Would this not be a “government taking” to pass laws that cause one’s valuable property to have a value of zero?
“President Joe Biden has issued a new environmental federal regulation to begin phasing out gas-powered cars, requiring American automakers..”
Excuse me…
I didn’t know that we were living under a King… who can rule by decree.
I saw another poster ask: “where is Congress?”
My guess is that they’re too busy trading stocks and making deals to even care. I’m sure that they’re gonna make a killing out of this action as well..
Some nation we have when we allow thoroughly corrupt RATS to run it..
"You thinking about driving?"
"Yeah... I might."
"How far is it?"
"5-1/2 hours... saves airfare and rental."
"Well, you know you still have to rent a car from here... can't take your personal vehicle."
"Oh... really?"
"Yeah... and it has to be an electric vehicle."
"What?"
"Yeah"
"Guess you're flyin', then."
and watch them include wording that makes it appear that his regulations can never be undone, and watch the rinos wring their hands and say “Well, we can’t go against the law”
So, they want 100 times the number of ev’s on the roads in 8 years. Which means they will be increasing the grid capacity by 100 times too? Right? Hello?
A buddy of mine in the car business says that this is all smoke and mirrors to get people to accept hybrids.
Ten to fifteen years ago hybrids were polarizing. Many of the complaints you hear about EVs - the batteries are expensive, are bad for the environment, the cars have poor resale value, etc. - people were saying about hybrids.
Then the big push began on EVs. They were everything bad about hybrids...squared.
Next thing you know, laws are being passed requiring EVs by a certain date...except that the laws REALLY say EVs OR hybrids.
Compared to EVs, hybrids don’t look so bad.
If they had tried to pass laws ten years ago requiring people to buy hybrids, it wouldn’t have worked. Now it is going to look like a reasonable compromise.
Umm, over my dead body!
