Biden Issues ‘Toughest Ever’ Electric Vehicle Mandates – In the Tank Podcast #393
The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 393 of the In The Tank Podcast. President Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency has just unveiled the “toughest ever” car emissions rules to force Americans to buy electric vehicles. This new mandate should be called the “Break America’s Electric Grid” rule. While we still have choices on what vehicles we buy, the Biden administration is trying to severely, and quickly, limit those choices. Can we go this fast into an EV future? And if we do, what are the real costs in terms of quality of life, freedom, and the environment.
We’ll also play clips from a devastating interview of Elon Musk on the BBC this week. He was challenged by the mid-wit newsreader about allowing “misinformation” and “hate speech” on Twitter, which serves as the world’s public square. Unfortunately, the BBC newsreader’s dismissive attitude about free speech – a foundational right in a free society – is troubling and shared by many in the upcoming generations.
We also talk about Chris Talgo’s op-ed in the American Thinker this week about the plan in California to pay millions in reparations to African-Americans and if that idea will spread nationally.
