    I’m not here to talk about Trump. He’s a human dumpster fire.

    From your own IRS help article-

    The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 changed the rules for this credit for vehicles purchased from 2023 to 2032.

    It’s not a new credit. They changed the rules for an existing credit to favor domestic production down into the supply chain. Which is only met by (currently) 12 vehicles. And for 2024 it looks like Nissan and Honda both managed to get a vehicle back into compliance. (Leaf and Prologue)

    And the EPA solar program is just bringing over what DoE has been doing for a decade already. It’s great that it got funding, but it’s hardly novel and we’re already saturated for solar power in many places.

        That’s part of what’s soured me about Biden. He keeps taking victory laps on things we already won or that he misrepresents to the people. It started with him trying to claim a victory on immigration by making Asylum even more dangerous than it already is. It’s like watching George Bush all over again, just without the hating on minorities.

          He was handed a nation in decline, with massive holes poked by Trump’s rapid repeals. It’s going to be slow to repair. Granted, I’m not a big fan of Biden either. He’s only got my anti-Trump vote.
