#1 EVs lose money with each sale, but they help DEI scores. Perhaps there is another DEI strategy that can be selected that doesn’t drive a company into extinction.

#2 "Despite Biden’s push for EVs, the Biden administration blocked efforts to start mining for copper and nickel..."

Yet another example of how ill thought out political agendas get in the way of actual real life.

#4 let's look at the logic here. Mandate electric vehicles and yet restrict mining the raw materials needed for electric cars all in the name of saving the planet.

It's pretty clear that saving the planet is a pretty weak cover. It's actually about population control via restricting mobility. Cortez had nothing on these clowns.
