I was on another forum months ago basically going from memory of posted links. Not sure how accurate one has to be to get an article posted on the internet and the bills in question are rather large.

I find it pretty amazing someone posted videos of a weed wacker running on E85 if that is true. Hate to go political. I also think the carb of the saw they wanted to do it to has non adjustable jets, this whole thing might have been a trolling thread.
 
Interesting!

While I don't agree with it, if government is going to meddle in private business, removing taxes is definitely the way I'd rather it be done. Those Tesla owners can spend their money far more responsibly than the government can.

I hate to say it, but if gas gets to $7/gal and stays there, that'd put me at $300+ per month spent on fuel alone, just to get back and forth to work. Turning that into $40 more on the power bill instead would cover a lot of a sub-$30k Tesla Model 3 payment.

I get that this was the entire point all along. Not going to screw myself over just to flip off a politician, though.

On the other hand, if gas goes to $6.00/gallon, then crashes to $1.75/gallon because there's nobody who can afford $6 anymore, and the toilet paper machines at Treasury have been shut down...

Beware teh deflation...

I eclipsed that fuel bill per month at $4.50 a gallon.... and electric prices have steadily been on the rise as well.

Surely not something I'd do the instant gas hits $7/gal. Wait till after the election and a few months beyond that, at the very least.

Whatever you do, hang onto your cash. Cash will be king, particularly if/when the massive deflation event hits. Bargains, bargains everywhere!

We're seeing it already starting with building materials. Just wait until the housing market collapses.
 
well yep on the cash , but the talking empty heads in Congress are others are pushing for the cashless society. anything you do will be tracked- except barter, that will be all that is left that they maybe can't track. paper chit sheets we have now will be worthless as it will no longer be considered legal tender. ( not that they worth anything now except on good faith.)
 
So to those who support electric vehicles do you feel their state yearly registrations should cost more?
Dmv fees are already too high in most places. In Illinois you are paying tolls to drive on a lot of roads, But your infrastructure is crumbling. So they tax your fuel more and raise vehicle fees across the board. The toll was to pay for the road supposedly, Those roads are 50+ years old in most cases and they continue to rob you, You are so used to it you think it's normal. They will collect all of that money and you will still be driving on potholes. I know, I grew up in So. California, And the voters supposedly would vote for an increase in gas taxes, It would pass and the roads would not be fixed, This has happened many times, They vote on a new gas tax every now and then, But people have short memories. I'm glad I live in a free state now, Where the roads are like glass, THe dmv fees are cheap and so is the cost of living, A true paradise here in So Utah. Gas is about on avg $1.10 a gallon cheaper here than SO Cal.

I am glad your happy but my question was should owners of electric vehicles pay a higher registration fee
 
But coal is black.....at least here it is. Never seen green coal but heck there are millions I have not seen
They’ll paint it green..lol

here is a pic of ’blue coal’ that was invented by Jimmy Hoffa for sale to New York City to indicate you paid your mob dues….
