Frankly feelings matter little and are part of the broader societal problem we have with anyone who decides their feelings are impacted deserves immediate action to stop that!
Spot on. Everyone and every household has their own unique circumstances. Freedom of choice is good.

Could not agree more. Of course, those that set themselves oit on some sort of crusade always think they know what's best, their choices are good and their intentions are selfless. It oftentimes starts as a selfless act, but the history is more than enoigh proof that it almost always ends up being a selfish act.

Meh, subsidizing half the fuel cost so folks can afford to put one person in large vehicles that clog highways, wear roads and then drive an automotive loan crisis from folks buying more than they can afford
after the fuel prices go up from expanding demand .
Nice system, I bet nothing like 2008 would ever happen again, folks were pulling Honda Insights out of the junkyard and truck resale tanked
we will forever have unlimited fuel and it will never go up in price.
Don't get me wrong, the trucks yearly registration is 25% cheaper than a car and insurance is $80 a year which is nice for the 500 miles a year I pull
but I think we are all kidding ourselves trying to push pickups by subsidizing the [censored] things.
And why do modern trucks still get terrible MPGs?
my 82 Diesel suburban with 2wd and a 5 speed stick could get nearly 30mpg at 55mph if I didn't have a trailer.
Seems like we should be able to do better
