This remark is riddled with half-truths 
Subsidy solely causes costs to rise within the medium to long run (see hire subsidy).
That is nonsense. There are lots of examples of backed merchandise that ultimately turn into commonplace for a a lot cheaper price. Photo voltaic panels price (even if you have got been in a position to get the VAT again for years) now a lot lower than 10 years in the past.
Hire subsidy doesn’t exist, hire allowance is the correct phrase, and is barely awarded to social tenants, the place the worth is set politically. You see the most important hire will increase, by far, within the free sector for which there are not any subsidies.
however when they’re offered second-hand, the battery is worn out and you’ll largely throw the automotive on the e-garbage. Hope one thing else is discovered.
Complete nonsense. The uncooked supplies of batteries might be recycled (lithium doesn’t put on out) and batteries can be repaired, for instance by changing 1 cell. In any case, it’s primarily the first-generation EVs with out correct battery administration the place vary turns into an issue. There are merely Mannequin S’s which have pushed greater than half one million miles on the unique battery. Greater than 20% battery degradation on 10 yr outdated excessive mileage automobiles is extraordinarily uncommon. With a Tesla you continue to have a really usable vary.
I perceive that these costly groceries are largely as a result of VVD
Not that I need to defend the VVD, actually not however these costly groceries are primarily as a result of (recent) meals requires numerous power, and our power provide these days runs on imported gasoline through ships (costly) as an alternative of personal drilling and pipelines (low-cost). What occurred in Ukraine shouldn’t be the VVD’s fault.
The state of affairs ought to train us that we should always not depend upon different nations for one thing important akin to power. That additionally means the import of oil, the place the OPEC cartel is in management. For my part, huge electrification of trade, properties and our car fleet, mixed with extra in-house power era, is a smart transfer in the long run.
