EVs are still on the drawing board until they solve the 10 year life-cycle, or 100,000 mile life-span for cheaper models. They also need to lower the cost. It took the US over 20 years to lower the cost of flat-screen TVs from $5000 to $500, but we had to send all manufacturing to China and other low wage countries to get the price down.

The unnecessary $220 billion in subsidies are being put on the US Credit Card and are landing on the National Debt and increasing the Federal Budget Deficit interest to $1 trillion. The US Federal Government is in the exact same place as the Roman Empire was in 400AD, we are going broke and need to pull back on Federal Government spending.
