Re: Americans have to stop the addiction

A couple of weeks ago in the news, I saw where a US battery plant was cutting back on production. I guess ford and gm both own battery plants here. We've seen the news saying tons of EVs are stocked up on dealer lots, not selling.
The question I have is how much real gov pressure is being put on the automakers to convert our society to ev?
The automakers cannot continue to lose money and still stay in business on the hope the buying public will come around to the ev concept.
At this point in time, ICE works for most as it has forever where EV works for only some. This push toward ev looks to me like a fast race toward limited vehicle ownership in our foreseeable future. My dad told me, when I was a young man, that vehicle ownership would one day become a luxury only the wealthiest could afford. I believe he was right.
