The World Economic Forum is looking to reduce global reliance on critical metals as nations look to make the transition to renewable energy supplies, and one proposal is reducing ownership of private vehicles.


"This transition from fossil fuels to renewables will need large supplies of critical metals such as cobalt, lithium, nickel, to name a few," the forum said in a report earlier this month. "Shortages of these critical minerals could raise the costs of clean energy technologies."

The international lobbying organization based in Switzerland has proposed three solutions for lowering the costs of critical metals used in everything from cellphones and electric vehicles to wind turbines and efficient lighting.

No private property ... nothing for government to tax, and no revenue to fund government.  No laws or law enforcement to prevent me from stealing rich people's stuff.

We will be put into FEMA camps for slave labor.  Those that are too old, too weak or ill will be disposed of.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

A lack of ostensible private property in the USSR, GDR, Cuba, etc, didn't lead to a lack of any policing; if anything, their policing was heavier, not lighter.

Based on some hyperinflation scenarios I am seeing, a new vehicle may cost $250K in a few years anyway.  That'll do a good job of elimationing ownership.
