    Today, the Oil and Gas Industry has sent a letter to Republicans in Congress to kill the EV tax credit!

    Industry groups ask Congress not to extend EV credit - Oil & Gas Journal

    This is the same industry that gets around $20 BILLION a year in subsidies from tax payers!

    “In summary, it is unwise public policy to subsidize a highly inefficient means of [greenhouse gas] reduction that primarily benefits the wealthy, driving up the deficit or forcing taxpayers to make up the difference,”

    What a bunch of wealthy hypocrites, driving their MBunzes, Bummers, and Poorches. They are truly worried and scared about the rEVolution and they well should be!
