    t In Texas, there is a $200 extra fee you pay each year for having an EV. As someone who supports the move towards EVs, that seems fair to me. But at some point, we also need to just tax gas more like they do cigarettes

    Rep. Mann is not an Armed Forces veteran. I believe that it should be a requirement for holding federal office, that a candidate, in some manner, reserve or active, must have been, at some time, affiliated in a real context with a branch of the Armed Service. I believe as a qualifier, this would undoubtedly weed out a lot of the less than desirable candidates we see and hear so much from in this day. Nepotism would almost assuredly be culled from our midst unless the honest commitment were there.

    Heavier EV vehicles (consumer) don’t weigh anything near what freight trucks weigh. Running 10,000 cars a day over them compared to 10,000 consumer EV vehicles won’t make much of a difference. EV freight trucks, however, may well need to push the 80,000 GVW limit to make financial sense for those trucking companies. Those trucking companies have their work cut out for themselves in trying to get the American taxpayer to subsidize their damage to our roadways.

    • @DrewJenks76
      @DrewJenks76 2 місяці тому +5

      This is what happens when you shrink the budget (tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy) and cut government spending. We need to understand when we slash budgets it always going to affect jobs that congress thinks can be preformed by a non government entity either a private company or in this case the airline itself. The other part of this is cutting regulations. Some people are of the notion if we cut regulation the business would be better but at what cost? Most regulations that are implemented are a one time cost to companies but they cry that it will cost them money for the next 10,15 years. We need congress to fund these agencies so they can hire the inspectors needed and enforce the regulations.
