The Biden-Harris regime’s full spectrum assault on the American economy is as multifaceted as it is relentless. There is of course the crippling inflation, the boundless corruption, the botched and ill-advised Covid stimulus (with scams coming to light even now), and of course the wide-open borders, just to name a few Biden-era travesties. Often lost in this bountiful conversation of the Biden-Harris economic calamity is the assault against the great American auto industry, oil and gas, and American energy generally.
Perhaps no single policy better represents the corruption and incompetence of the Biden-Harris energy policy than the industry’s insistence on so-called Electric Vehicle mandates. As though American auto companies weren’t suffering enough under Biden-Harris policies, the EV mandates impose unreasonable restrictions on American auto companies that in effect force these companies to produce electric vehicles for which there is little consumer demand. The average EV is over $15,000 more expensive than its gas counter-part, and almost 50% more expensive to repair. Another issue is that the nation lacks the infrastructure to support the demands of the EV mandate–indeed, even the regime press has had to acknowledge the astonishing fact that Biden-Harris managed to produce only 7 EV charging stations with over 7 billion dollars and two years to spend it. Imagine ravaging the taxpayer with inflation, forcing the taxpayer to purchase electric vehicles he doesn’t want, taking over 7 billion dollars of taxpayer money and not even building the appropriate infrastructure needed to sustain the electric vehicles the taxpayer doesn’t want in the first place. That’s the Biden-Harris economy in a nutshell.
While the EV mandates have wreaked havoc on the economy generally, much of the pain is of course concentrated in the American auto industry and in states like Michigan where this auto industry has historically thrived. Ford’s decision to pause production of its F-150 lightning pickup is only one of many examples of American auto companies struggling to meet the burden of Biden-Harris EV mandates.
Trump, a successful businessman and a man of common sense, has always been vehemently opposed to these mandates.
