Car dealerships in the US are whining that they can't move the expensive EV's car makers are producing. Meanwhile the world is burning. We need a crash program to replace every damned gas powered vehicle needed, while eliminating hundreds of thousands completely off the road where possible. Cities should have sidewalks, bikepaths, and mass rail transit everywhere in the US.

If we don't do it, we're pissing in the wind.

edit: same with renewable generation - no more nimby bullshit. build it all. no one's view is worth another summer like this.
