A contractor showed up to a valero plant in an ev a few years ago. He was asked to leave the site and they stopped doing business with that company.

What site? The St. Charles Refinery had an Engineer that drove an EV and Management never said a thing.

re: Home Building Cost 2024 [St. Tammany Parish]

I thought he was supposed to be one of the premier builders?
He is (was?)on my short list for an upcoming build.

I don’t want to trash anybody on line, but what areas of concern should I “inquire” about?

He built our house and anything we identified as needing being addressed, his favorite response was "that's industry standard". The items weren't anything extreme either.
He was very condescending when we identified the issues. We definitely wouldn't use him again.

Who pays the Fed interest?

Investors. Japan owns the most Treasuries, followed by China.

"Dude deserves to get fired! Wasting Billions of tax payer dollars like it grows on trees."

The renovations aren't being paid for by taxpayers, it's funded by interest from securities the Fed owns.

"If I don't buy one there is no effect at all."

Unfortunately car components affected by tariffs will increase repair costs and will increase insurance costs.
