Other countries can be good examples of policy that functions well. First and foremost, they should be included in the average fleet mpg rating for vehicle manufacturers. This is because they are a part of the fleet of vehicles produced and contribute a good sized portion of the greenhouse gasses emitted from vehicles. They are also one of the biggest number of vehicles sold so they shouldn’t be exceptional.

I like your idea but I feel it is too in the weeds for simple policy.

Who said they are not needed? Are they “not needed” because, while profitable, they need to make more profit? We need to add some skepticism whenever c-suite people lay people off because it is almost always because moar profit.

Human who needs to earn a living /= CEO or billionaire. CEOs and billionaires are just grifters.

The number must go up. Humans who need to earn a living be damned.

This is potentially good news, but we also need to fix the mpg exemption for trucks and SUVs if we want substantive change.
