They think Gas is too expensive because of the red take and lack of drilling on federal lands (lack of new permits at least) I don't care much about EVS either. I mean, they just take pollution from one place to another and they are better on the environment, but you have drive it for a few years for them to be better on the environment. They are not going to solve climate change.
Public Transit is severely lacking, we need more trains and bicycle paths. Buses, yeah sure, why not. They are going to be diesel busses because Electronic busses don't make that much sense either.
EVs ARE a fad I think, hybrids are pretty cool as far as cars go. And that's not too far, because personal cars are terrible in general and should be outlawed, but that's besides the point. Otherwise I agree with pretty much everything you just said.
EVs are kind of a fad (although they are cool though)
But, you lost me at personal cars should be outlawed. I think that would be disastrous for old folk and the economy
