You left out one, tiny little potential problem: I've driven a lot of cars that were at the end of their serviceable life. I bought several for $200 and ultimately left them at the junkyard. When the only cars are EV, what will poor people do for transportation? If you think that internet service towers and EV charging stations are going to be thin in rural America, try grabbing a bus in the middle of Navada, Montana, Wyoming, etc., and a lot of suburbs. Look at any population map and you'll see that most, 95% of our land mass is unlike either of our left coasts. A lot of what passes for thoughtful planning for tomorrow is done in the densely populated east coast and may be just peachy there and fit in with what their needs are. These are the same people who want to tie the hands of ranchers on herd limits, water rights, et al, -the things that they have just cursory knowledge of. DC wants to control federal land in the rural west via BLM (Bureau of Land Management). Again, east & west coasters running wide open west affairs. There should be little to none federal land. If they want to manage land, start in DC, one of the most screwed up cities in the country. The states should control all the land & assets within their own boundaries. They live there, know their own needs, and can be rewarded or fired muy pronto by the citizenry to keep the needs of the state in-line with methods of use control. Bring back the original concept of State's Rights and limited central govt. We've already seen what happens when our needs are controlled from DC: chaos in education; trillions spent of poverty to produce virtually zero change; non-enforcement of laws to the point where "If you can't control it; legalize & tax it, -gambling, prostitution, & drugs; authority over-steps by every agency to the point where the agencies no longer accomplish the original mandate of safety or contract honesty, to wit: the FDA forced non-working statistically dangerous non-vaccines upon everyone and continues it upon infants & children; SEC doesn't enforce GAAP upon Chinese companies listed on our stock exchanges, or our govt, at the same time that US companies and every citizen must account for every dime over $600 per year (with the significant exception of the President & his #2 son, brother, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, et al); FBI violates FISA Sec. 702(b) gathering intelligence on US citizens without a court ordered warrant 275,000 times, and Congress, knowing this, approves extension of the expired law. We need changes top to bottom; our system that made us the shining city on the hill is no longer functioning. It was based upon the idea that honest men having honest differences could arrive at a mutually agreeable outcome in the best interest of the whole country and did not anticipate the loss of honest men on the Democrat side of the issues.
