The Electric Car Scam Summed Up Nicely In Less Than A Minute
And so the Gretas of the world quietly sank back into their hobbles. Now we know how truly moronic she and her kind are.

I watched this video a couple weeks ago. I was impressed at the performance of an EV truck but not surprised at the lack of emphasis on the opportunity costs associated with EVs. (Note that I am not anti-EV. I just don’t think they’re ready for my lifestyle yet.) The math slightly leans towards use of an EV truck…but only if you’re going to pull that load within its charge range. For me, this is the achilles heel of EV—range and recharge time.
If you’re the kind that will drive nearly always in town or very short commutes where you will have ample down time for recharging, an EV may well suit you.
How would a flat usage based tax eliminate freedom?And just like that, a little more freedom is gone…
I value the privacy to travel without government oversight, government tracking devices are not freedom of movement. Be careful of the future steps on the slippery slope.How would a flat usage based tax eliminate freedom?
If anything it's the most logical way to tax stuff. You don't use the road, you don't pay. Seems like the maximum amount of freedom as far as taxation is concerned.
Nah…we don’t care about logic and maintaining freedom when it comes to tax policy anymore. We’re all about EQUITY. The equitable thing to do is charge certain people more for all of their electricity so that oppressed people can drive their new EVs.How would a flat usage based tax eliminate freedom?

Nah, a toll based system would be your answer. You use the road, you pay for the road. That would work for highways.How would a flat usage based tax eliminate freedom?

That's what I meant by usage based. Essentially toll roads. I must have missed the part where Mike's 'loss of freedom' comment was about how it is tracked.Nah, a toll based system would be your answer. You use the road, you pay for the road. That would work for highways.
Technology is a curse on freedom. It just gives big brother more and more opportunity and ability to watch and control every facet of our lives.
I didn’t know that. Good to know. That was one of the reasons I found them appealing.That may be true for full charge but acceleration declines as the charge level goes down. Not to mention due to I2R=P, losses from heat become greater (higher heat = higher resistance) so acceleration & range suffers even more.
I believe that is what he was referring to with his comment.A true mileage tax really would be most fair way to collect road taxes. (Obligatory disclaimer that taxation is theft, yada, yada, yada).
Surely you can't do that to a gas vehicle.
Of course Government Motors can do that.Surely you can't do that to a gas vehicle.
