Guarantee the technology is out there for this but the oil companies bought the patents for it so it doesn’t get developed.
Oh I have never heard this before. Some guy invented a carb that can get 75 miles to a gallon and it was bought by the big auto makers and is sitting on a shelf somewhere in Detroit. Yeah I guess its possible but this story has been out there since the 70's

That has literally happened multiple times throughout history
Yeah oil companies definitely don’t want to make more money via alternative energies.

Used car market is going to do well as well as mechanics and parts.

I don’t see the issue with this. Unless you’re an oil rig baw that hates people not having to fill up multiple times a week at $4 a gallon
Of course you wouldn’t. You’ve proven yourself to be a fricking idiot so what else is new?

wonder if all the folks pushing this in the name of the environment realize how bad we're going to frick the earth mining the millions of tons of precious metals and lithium this will require. (or do they really not care and just pandering to a different group of businesses ?)
Oh the politicians know. Most will invest and make money. Thinking it could be the new ticket to super wealth.
The voters, now they are dumb and believe every word and sniff their own farts.

If he's going to just recite fiction, then why not 1000 mpg?

Republicans elected in 2024 will lower it to 12mpg. This is dumbass hype.

A lot of people bitched and whined that the election wasn’t rigged, this was their plan all along, they don’t have to get re-elected now, They already stole it, that’s why we fought the results. A lot of dumbasses will realize what happened about 3 years too late

Have to think they are trying to destroy our country financially to be more dependent on government.

The next president will throw away this nazi-arse mandate. FJB

I say frick YOU to anyone that voted for this PoS administration!
Let’s see what their President (not mine) has inflicted on the United States:
1) Transitioned us from Energy Independence to Energy Dependence
2) Opened to border to a flood of illegal immigrants and drugs
3) Which has lead to the highest number of ODs (now leading cause of death of 18-44 y/o.
4) Repealed any effort to stymie the Chinese
5) Lead the Afghanistan debacle
6) Mandated Covid vaccines which has lead to people losing their jobs.
7) Passed extra stimulus bills (that lots of the money hasn’t been spent) that economist warned would lead to inflation.
8) Now suffering rampant inflation.
9) This entire Ukrainian fiasco is due to bungled foreign policy on their part.
10) Which is causing global uncertainty and potentially creating a way for the petro-dollar to have competition
I can go on with other crap like not being able to define a chick from a dude and nominating a damn Supreme Court Justice all because she has a minority vagina!

The new standards, he said, will help keep the U.S. more secure and preserve “the freedom of our country to chart its future without being subject to other countries and to the decisions that are being made in the boardrooms of energy companies.”
Yes, out of fuel consumption in vehicles (a product that has never seen the level of supply shortage in the US) and fuel supply, definitely easier to control the former, even though we have already achieved the latter. Enjoy better fuel prices in half a decade, after a new vehicle purchase of course.
The people running this country are fricking incompetent
