Democracy is “on the line” this November? Well, it best be highlighted that Biden and ilk are out to proscribe choices you make in your life, including what car you want to purchase.
Because, you know, modernity is killing Mother Gaia.
The Biden administration finalized its crackdown on gas cars Wednesday, with the Environmental Protection Agency announcing drastic climate regulations meant to ensure more than two-thirds of passenger cars and light trucks sold by 2032 are electric or hybrid vehicles.
The EPA rule imposes strict limits on tailpipe pollution, limits the agency says can be met if 56% of new vehicles sold in the US are electric by eight years from now, along with 13% that are plug-in hybrids or other partially electric cars.
Look at those numbers again … of new vehicles sold eight years from now, regular gas cars are to make up only 31% of total sales. 31%. When EV sales today are only 7.9% and consumer support is so low that auto manufacturers are scaling back production?
Wait, what? Biden and the watermelons of the EPA don’t explain how it is possible to turn around consumer preference from 8% of the market to 61% in eight short years. But we can guess.
American drivers simply aren’t embracing EVs because they know these vehicles have shorter driving ranges and longer refueling times. Not to mention that they’re significantly more expensive. (snip)
Taxpayers not only pay with more expensive cars, they have to subsidize new production facilities.
In Michigan, lawmakers have already promised $200 million dollars of taxpayer money — and that’s just for one Ford battery plant in Marshall. (snip)
This regulatory overreach is just one prong of the administration’s multi-agency assault on consumer freedom.
Just the latest Statist intrusion into our lives. Remember kids, when the Left screams democracy, they DO NOT mean what they want us to think they mean.
