I bet this post I'm quoting will not be considered "political" but any contrary response would be.
I think that most often the government policy makers are more often influenced by the donations to help the ones making the donations at the expense of voters.
Maybe if tax policy treated oil industry same as all others as soon as they showed they could be profitable EVs would not need subsidies now?
Or maybe, if back in the '70s when government decided the economy should not be hostage to OPEC, we had done things like leave solar panels on White House, instead of letting the oil companies hold the economy hostage?
Maybe a decade of data from those panels would of spurred development of that industry/reduced fossil fuel dependence without needing the subsidies?

Like Time, I’m buying somebody else’s products here on out.
I can't blame anyone for taking a handout that is being pushed their way by the government, unless it effects their vote or political donations. The blame lies mostly with the people making the policies.
