Lets increase fuel prices so high everyone will buy electric vehicles. So let me get this straight. I cant afford $5.00 gas, so i better spend $60.000.00 to buy an electric car. And then realize my electric bill rises to an equal cost of the $5.00 a gallon gas. But at least i can virtue signal until my heart is content. And after all that is what is most important.

Keep in mind this about electric cars, there is no such thing as an old cheap clunker. You can buy a 1985 Buick for $1000 and drive the hell out of it. But old batteries just don't hold up. Think of the battery life of an old laptop. Not gonna work.
Exactly… depreciation is not a curve with these, it’s a cliff! Even worse we don’t know yet what the true disposal cost will be.
