I’m waiting for some enterprising young tweaker to figure out how to strip the motors and battery packs straight out of the tesla
Lol! That’s called ‘recycling’ and entrepreneurship in California!
Sold… to whom?
Jail the buyers and this stops.
Easy solution, outlaw copper recycling
So … the US Green New Deal … is spending $Billions for a network of EV Charging stations. So … in essence … we are spending future US tax dollars on installations that will be vandalized … so it’s just like wasting $200 Billion in Ukraine? Nice … American “leadership” keeps throwing money down the crapper. Time for an entirely new government. Everyone GONE! Clean house.
This is standard behavior in a low trust society. You can’t have public infrastructure because it will be stolen and stripped for the scrap value.
A friend had left his motor home parked at a local campground for a few days, managed campground, started it up to the sound of a very large exhaust leak, crawled underneath to find the catalytic converter was cut off of it.
