Mandating AM radio receivers on electric vehicles is like forcing consumers to buy TVs with rabbit ear antennas. EVs have better access to local and national AM programming digitally...

It’s a tough business model when for you to succeed, everyone else has to be wrong. No U.S. manufacturer sees the point of battery swapping and it solves for a ‘problem’ that is tiny proportionately compared to what would be needed to make Ample real. canarymedia.com/articles/ev-…

If battery packs were the size of baseball bats, and Ample was the first to market I could see the merit. But as it is the remedy is impractical, even if there were more than zero U.S. EVs capable of battery swapping.

“What we realize in American politics is that the economics drive nearly everything. I don’t think we’re going to get to 100% #EV sales off of emissions reductions, although those are very important. It’s going to have to be the economics,” ​@JRBinDC, Exec. Director, @zeta_2030.

“We’ve seen two major investments for battery manufacturers. @Panasonic announced a $4 billion investment in Kansas, so it’ll be 1,000 jobs. There’s a $3.2 billion investment that LG announced in Tennessee, about 1,000 jobs there,”​ @JRBinDC, Exec. Director, @zeta_2030

My predecessor made a string of broken promises in places like Wisconsin, Indiana, and Ohio – where promised investments and jobs in manufacturing never materialized, but layoffs and shuttered factories did. On my watch, we keep our commitments.
