If you like your car, good luck keeping it. Biden's EV mandate drives change people don't want.
In 2013, then-President Barack Obama earned himself the “lie of the year” after he had repeatedly assured Americans, "If you like your health care plan, you can keep it."
That simply wasn’t true, and the rollout of Obamacare (Affordable Care Act) caused millions of people to receive cancellation notices. The government’s intrusion into the private health insurance market had major consequences, and many Americans weren’t happy about it.
More than 10 years later, President Joe Biden is driving major disruptions in another major U.S. industry: automobiles.
Unlike his former boss, Biden’s not even bothering to promise the American people that if they like their car, they can keep it.
Biden, however, also is not being upfront with the public about what his new Environmental Protection Agency rule actually means.
The headline announcing the EPA mandate last month proclaims: “Biden-Harris Administration finalizes strongest-ever pollution standards for cars that position U.S. companies and workers to lead the clean vehicle future, protect public health, address the climate crisis, save drivers money.”
As with most bureaucratic mumbo jumbo, the meaning is less than clear. I’ll translate: If you like your current gas-powered car, SUV or truck, too bad.
What people want doesn't play into Biden's rules The timing of this rule isn’t a coincidence. It allows Biden to claim a “win” on his promises to the climate change crowd months ahead of the presidential election.
Yet, the broader implications – if drivers fully understood them – aren’t likely to win the president a lot of fans.

China ain't holding back on EVs. We need to subsidize EVs just like they do or our auto manufacturing will bite the dust. And no the govt. is not going to confiscate your vehicle. If you buy a new one then it may have to be an EV. It's the MAGA traitors who hate our country and the ideal of equality it was founded on. That's why they fly the flag of an enemy.

I'd like to thank lifelong Democrats for their contributions.
Democratic led House Majority PAC just announced they will be making over $186 million in ad buys across the country to support President Biden and House Democrats.
