The last few years have made me very cynical. If someone is pushing for XYZ, I always look for the money behind their so-called motives. There are *always* unintended consequences to every so-called advancement and they're usually worse than the consequences behind the original way of doing things. I don't understand why stuff has to get shoved down our throats and be made mandatory. EVs and hybrids aren't exactly what I would call "new" ideas, but they definitely need time to work out bugs.
