That's why the vast majority of the $5 billion of your dollars spend subsidizing electric cars has gone to very rich people. You know the Silicon Valley types who buy Teslas.
Joe says that the day he's elected he's going to put in new pollution requirements that will ensure that every new light and medium duty vehicle will be electric, or technically zero emissions.
Given that today only 2% of new cars are electric he's essentially telling us he's going to determine what cars we can buy. Which means that unless a miracle occurs and electric cars plummet in price he's saying that a lot of us won't have cars.
What's interesting is that he talks about zero emission vehicles. There is no such thing.
What Joe's doing, and every other Democrat, is pretending that all electricity in America comes from wind or solar.
The reality is that electric cars can be worse in terms of emissions than gasoline powered cars in places where electricity is generated by coal or natural gas.
What people forget is that modern gas engines are clean; they emit only 1% of the pollution that cars in the 1960s emitted and when we compare those clean engines to coal power plants we find that we're better off with non-electric cars.
So Joe's banning cars for the middle class won't even make the environment better; it'll make it worse.
But that's ok. Joe's war isn't really with pollution but with your freedom.
A car means you can go where you want when you want.
Joe wants to turn the suburbs into dense cities without single family homes to make us all more dependent on government; it's no accident that city dwellers tend to vote for big government Democrats.
If you don't have a car, and Joe also says he supports AOC's Green New Deal which says that us commoners won't be able to fly in planes, then we're stuck.
Like serfs in Russia who couldn't leave their village without their local rulers permission we'll be stuck in our houses dependent on public transit which can be shut down whenever the government wants.
This is part of the Democrat's war on freedom.
They want to limit your freedom and force you to live the way they want you to live.
Joe'll still get to be driven around in a limo, electric or otherwise, and he'll still be able to fly on a plane but you won't.
