** Biden, Not Trump, Is Right on the Autoworkers’ Strike and Electric Vehicles
------------------------------------------------------------
By Paul Bledsoe
PPI's Strategic Adviser
For The Messenger ([link removed])
Donald Trump and the rest of the Republican Party, seemingly devoid of original policy ideas themselves, have tried to make Joe Biden’s advocacy of incentives for U.S. production of electric vehicles (EVs) a campaign issue in the midst of the United Auto Workers (UAW) strike over higher pay and improved benefits. But the truth is that President Biden’s efforts to deliver large EV incentives for American car buyers and U.S. automakers are our best hope so far for the U.S. to outcompete China in the domestic and global auto market and to save American jobs.
It is the automakers themselves and, increasingly, consumers who are switching to EVs, for the obvious reason that EVs are already much cheaper to operate than gasoline-power cars, and very soon, they are expected to be far cheaper to manufacture and purchase than gasoline vehicles. EVs are the future of the auto industry, and Biden is making sure America will be ready for the decades ahead.
