why that was nice

I wonder how long that massive Lithium Ion battery bank lasts and how much it costs to replace..

Exactly my thoughts.

I plan on keeping vehicles 10+ years, a battery pack that big can't be inexpensive to replace.

I'd rather build my own EV anyway, but GM deserves some credit if they can pull this one off.

It was -42 actual temp here last winter.. and the coldest recorded temp in this state is -58..

How are the batteries going to perform in that sort of environment?

i would say creation requires regulation.

I think we approaching what's called the regulatory dialectic. However, the RD appears to act as if regulation is the enemy where you believe it is an ally.

I am not certain I can steadfastly align with either camp.

No doubt I won't like those prices. But when that time comes, there will probably be more to worry about than gas prices I would think.

It is not very unreasonable that the rich should contribute to the public expense, not only in proportion to their revenue, but something more than in that proportion.

Is this improvement in the circumstances of the lower ranks of the people to be regarded as an advantage or as an inconveniency to the society? The answer seems at first sight abundantly plain. Servants, labourers, and workmen of different kinds, make up the far greater part of every great political society. But what improves the circumstances of the greater part can never be regarded as an inconveniency to the whole.

No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable. It is but equity, besides, that they who feed, clothe, and lodge the whole body of the people, should have such a share of the produce of their own labour as to be themselves tolerably well fed, clothed, and lodged.

Chicken v Egg on regulation vs. financial innovation.

It seeks to try to explain the movement between regulation and financial innovation.
