    Now you are complaining about EV batteries. But, batteries are still worth far to much to simply discard at the end of their life in an EV. You don't have ANY argument about...

    Not possible. Pollution from ICEs has been and continues to be measured. You can't make up some other reality.

    You haven't even cited it. You can look at LA, cities in China and other places to see the disgusting results of ICE pollution. But, that doesn't measure the healthcare...

    Yes, I did. But, I don't see that the past study (that you didn't cite) must be considered definitive. Nor do I see it as being useful as the basis for extrapolation to...

    It will be great to see Germany move forward. The ending of subsidies for EVs is somewhat like a price reset - which I don't believe will have long term impact.

    Economists agree that the inflation spike didn't come from actions promoted by the president. They came from factors such as the oil price spike and the supply chain problems.

    The issue isn't that I don't believe it - it's that you DO believe it. Our laws on murder do not come from the Bible.
