class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For one of the wealthier countries on this planet, America, with 330 million people \u23e4 representing about 4% of the world\u2019s 8 billion on this planet, President Biden is speeding ahead with EV mandates to ditch most new gas cars by 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Biden may not be cognizant that 80 percent of the 8 billion on this planet earning less than $10 a day, which is more than 6 billion on this earth, may never be able to enjoy the materialistic living styles of those in wealthier countries, or ever own an automobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In America, the elites have bought EVs, and the elites may continue to buy EVs, BUT we\u2019re quickly running out of elites!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

common folk need a workhorse vehicle, not just a second car toy that sits in the garage to be used on short ventures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&gt; The current EV ownership profiles are reflected in the oligarchic elite, which consists of highly educated, highly compensated, multi-car families with low mileage requirements for the family\u2019s second car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&gt; Current EV owner profiles are dramatically different from those of most vehicle owners. They are single-car owners, not as highly educated or compensated, and have higher mileage requirements for their workhorse vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mandating a change to EV ownership and further austerity on those who can least afford it, the Nation and the other 96% on this planet may face a rebellion from those who need transportation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Biden seems to be oblivious to the fact that there are&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__www.carparts.com_blog_how-2Dmany-2Dcars-2Dare-2Dthere-2Din-2Dthe-2Dworld_-23-3A-7E-3Atext-3DAnalysts-2520have-2520estimated-2520that-2520there-2Cto-2520double-2520every-252020-2520years&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&amp;r=XIveXu1levogIu1CK8XieKWTe8EQWZ39C112RCHbTsM&amp;m=jRWCE_55LaQls8Eu2UN63aYY111BJ1dB9AdXv1311ncIRh1z2D1dmiWsrwrQG4Kp&amp;s=1S6h_u-7Qx7R3_DryK9jsT2HFx3Sy42GKZLhwRTrCVc&amp;e=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">more than 1.4 billion vehicles in the world<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__vehiclehelp.com_how-2Dmany-2Dtrucks-2Dare-2Dthere-2Din-2Dthe-2Dworld_&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&amp;r=XIveXu1levogIu1CK8XieKWTe8EQWZ39C112RCHbTsM&amp;m=jRWCE_55LaQls8Eu2UN63aYY111BJ1dB9AdXv1311ncIRh1z2D1dmiWsrwrQG4Kp&amp;s=X8-8p3imEM_-xfBtMLyMnQTeFbelOuUV2FdY7Jd7qwk&amp;e=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">almost 300 million trucks in the world<\/a>.
