| Getoffmylawn - 9/30/2021 16:07 Domestic oil production increased every year under Obama, it increased under Donnie too until oil prices cratered his final year in office causing a severe downturn in the oil patch. Domestic oil production is again on the increase. You say liberals are forcing us off petroleum but the reality is market demand for electric vehicles is very strong. Tesla will sell over a million vehicles this year and there’s a months long waiting list for their cars. Right now a clean 3 year old Tesla will fetch as much as the same vehicle currently sells for new. Tesla’s don’t even qualify for the $7500 federal tax break, so how is this being forced down your throat?
Apparently you've never heard of the 2030 Agenda or the Green New Deal.
Then there's also the executive orders https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/27/biden-suspends-oil-and-gas-drilling-in-series-of.html
The "Infrastructure" Bill aka "The Green New deal lite" contains a lot of $'s for electric vehicles.
Also there is talk in the senate of opening up more (including Tesla) tax credits for electric vehicles and increasing the amount.
This has been and still is a far far cry from being purely market driven. The Govt is pushing electric vehicles big time.
