    That’s the beauty of it, now that the oil-ligarchy has defunded alternate energy and removed tax incentives, the companies responded by reversing 2 decades of development and finally getting hybrids and evs common in us automakers.

    Now that electric is off the menu, and protectionism is back on, it means the places those cars are being made and made well–like china–americans simply won’t even know about them or be able to buy them as they’ll be tariffed out of existence.

    Triple win for the oil-ligarchy

      Almost like it was planned - as soon as EVs are off the menu, start a war and send gas prices soaring. Get ready for another round of record quarterly profits - just like in GWII.
