But that’s not really the point of the tax credit.

It’s a tax credit, not a deduction. So it doesn’t make a difference with itemized vs standard deduction. It also doesn’t matter what your marginal rate is. It’s a cut right off the bottom line of how much you owe in after all your income and deductions are considered.

Emission credit trading is the way to go.

The situation right now is that Tesla and GM US-made EVs are at a disadvantage to foreign-made EVs. That’s dumb.

Also - they’re all idiots for not knowing how to just put the damn car in neutral anyhow.

An army of fixie riding hipsters brings it in from Nebraska. 

Carbon neutral food fairies?

How does he think he gets his food?

It’s easier to see when you realize he’s a moron who thinks the entire world functions like NYC.

At first I thought this is BS.  But then I remembered the fact that most cars have electric powered assist steering today.   Some glitch tells the motor that someone is trying to turn right and the assist motor kicks in an starts “helping” and I guess that could steer the car.

Apples to Oranges. I don’t think anyone else on the market other than Tesla even offers a solar roof, for example the one in this photo.

Depends on electricity rates, roof angles, sun availability, etc etc. Usually 15-25 years. You’re really going solar because of going green, not to save money.

You know for a writer who lives in New York (I believe) I wonder how Mr. Orlove thinks all the food and basic commodities get transported to his little island. Hint: it is not on a bunch of electric trolley cars. A fuel shortage that impacts trucking and even local delivery would have a huge effect on the availability…

Unintended steering of Hondas is plausible. Now that just about every car has some sort of steering assistance, the car can control the steering which means all it takes is a bug in the software or a bad sensor to turn the wheel the wrong way. And I find it much more likely that is happening than people actually…

Wait, they asked for forgiveness? 

There’s no excuse for this after the customer has already signed a contract. I’d make an exception if, upon removal of the old roof, it is found that the underlying structure is water damaged and requiring extensive rebuilding. But “complexity” is something the installer should be able to assess and reveal before the…

“It’s easier to ask for forgiveness than it is for permission”

Well, he does ride a bike everywhere.

“Wait, no. Not a public crisis. A crisis that threatens the oil industry.”
