So, will people buy more efficient vehicles? Of course not.

So what I'm reading is that gas is still very cheap in the US. Double the price would be a good start for any change to happen.

I can't believe that the next Democrat president did this! This is an outage!

That's still way cheaper than prices in Europe, even compared to pre war. In Germany you currently pay around 2.20€ per litre which is ~9.50$ per gallon.

Hopefully a hell of a lot worse. Hopefully so bad people can't afford gasoline. Imagine the fresh air. Looking forward to it.

Those Broski's will be giving $5 BJs to hobos before they give up their manhood.

Only EVs on the road? Imagine the silence. Fuck the dicks with the loud exhaust, its pointless and only there to annoy others and disturb the peace.

If you want to experience this and can afford it, go to Oslo or Bergen in Norway. Their cities are downright peaceful, it's so weird to somebody from a car-centric location.

If a bunch of the right dc fucks suddenly expire I bet the ones still around will waive their wand to placate the masses
