From that article: "...Porsche plans to electrify 50% of its new-car offerings by 2025, making use of both battery-electric and plug-in hybrid technology."

I have been touting the plug in hybrid technology for three years. Most working folks (68%) have a commute to work of less than 15 miles. Our commute is 18 miles. We use no gas for our normal commute. We have cut our overall gas usage by 90%.

They will not ban classic cars outright.

They will just carbon tax you if you don’t agree to permanently disable it.

That’s the plan.

Yeah…..I definitely don’t see the ICE going anywhere anytime soon. Especially here in southern Wisconsin where they’re building Kwik Trip gas stations everywhere!!!

I must type quickly and quietly ... I know the city you speak of, it's ... wait, I heard something at the door. Shhhhh ....

Ok, as I was sa-AIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH .... thud

They'll try to ban guns before they will successfully ban gas powered cars.

I'm not a member of the conspiracy club, but I think if any state goes after ICE it will be California. I just don't think it will happen with all the folks who drive trucks and live in rural areas.

The question that you should ask is what is the bigger plan more importantly why?

America rose to economic preeminence on oil. We got neat things like Muscle cars and the freedom to drive virtually anyplace we can afford to go

China has no oil. What China has however is rare earth minerals.

"Cui bono" means "who benefits?" If you are in line with Agenda 2030 then you are all for this transition.

Proud to say that I am not and for all the accurate reasons. Stossel is instructive:

Agenda 2030 is 100% real...they want us jammed all together in big cities...ever hear of "15 minute cities" This stuff is not conspiracy at all, its their plan. Be aware! Remember WEF's Claus Schwab said "You will own NOTHING and be happy". They are buying up all the land, guess who owns billions of acres of land?...THe Royal Family....GUess who owns the most farmland in the U.S. , its Bill Gates... They are using their monopoly printed fake money to buy up all the land. Own the land, control the food, rule the world.

Bill Ford, on electric cars: Not because we have the infrastructure, not because they are unaffordable to the majority, not because there is a demand for them, not because there are no plans to make 10-20k priced cars, but because the Chinese will dominate the market if we don't.

Ford is correct if someone is going to force you to buy something. You see we do not have the infrastructure as we are currently configured. The average home has 100 amp service.

THATS why they want you in a 15 minute city. Because you will ride share and use mass transit.
