Gov. Inslee’s Latest Wasteful EV Subsidy Is The Equivalent Of Paying $1,125 For A Latte

washington state ev subsides

Governor Inslee wants to buy 8,767 people a $1,125 latte. Metaphorically, at least. [emphasis, links added]

Governor Inslee’s new program to subsidize the purchase of electric vehicles is so wasteful at reducing CO2 emissions, it is the equivalent of paying that absurd amount for a 16-ounce latte.


On Earth Day, Governor Inslee announced a $45 million program to subsidize the purchase or lease of electric vehicles.

The program is targeted at those making 300% of the federal poverty level or less, which amounts to $93,600 per year for a family of four.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
