You could say the same thing about fossil fuels in the USA…

It's the result of massive subsidies. When they stop, this market will crash like a house of cards.

Or all of the food in the USA. Imagine all agra subsidies stopped. Probably a bigger deal than a EV market disruption.

Well honestly we need to stop with corn subsidies. It is used far too much in our food system. Corn sugar just needs to stop.

Those bastards, subsidizing emissions reducing technologies.
Hypx@kbin.social 1 year ago
Not really. It's mainly about gaining market dominance on a technology they think is the future. They'll build them right next to the massive coal plant alongside a million other things they're subsidizing.

Even if its not some altruistic reasons, they still are literally subsidizing this emissions reducing technology.
Tho they are also going pretty ham on subsidizing renewable energy too.

You won't be saying that once the market crashes. You'll realize that there are much better ways of spending that money. Like far more practical emissions reducing solutions.

And we could be doing the same if we ditch big oil subsidies.
