@zachbrown @temporaryDouchebag Electric cars are cheaper to mass manufacture than gas powered cars, the EV engine is a lot simpler than the gas combustion engine.
The price of the battery service and clean energy charging can be much lower than filling the tanks for 10 years at the gas pump, without any subsidy.
It make sense to give tax incentives to clean cars and tax polluting cars, that's just common sense. Polluting cars are bad for people's health and bad for the environment.
