EV truck rule highly inflationary

With consumer appetite for plug-in electric vehicles tanked and manufacturers making up for huge losses by charging more for gasoline cars and trucks that they actually want, EPA has just raised central -government-knows-best green zealotry to draconian heights.

On Good Friday, when news outlets were relatively quiet, the agency rolled out a new de facto EV mandate extending one recently applied to passenger cars to also include heavy-duty trucks.

As if the previous infringement on public choice and marketplace economics wasn’t bad enough, this follow-on rule is doubly dangerous to our vital food and commodity supply chain.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
