Why are we placing limits on the tax credits for electric vehicles? Can't we just cut defense spending instead?
I mean, isn't that the point of electric vehicles? Less demand for oil and gas, thereby allowing us to stop going to war over oil fields and gas pockets?
The notion behind limiting tax credits is that in the beginning, companies need help to sell experimental tech. As you get more sold, the tech gets less experimental. Eventually, the tech stops being experimental, and at that point, it should compete on its merits and not by being subsidized by the government.
Be careful about wishing for subsidization. Oil got so entrenched because the subsidies didn't go away when it became mainstream.
