Will pay-per-mile raise Reeves money or drive people away from electric vehicles?

🤔 I think people are being super harsh on Chancellor Reeves' idea 🤑. Like, sure, pay-per-mile might not be the most popular thing, but it's actually kinda fair 💸. If you're driving around all day, every day, that mile count adds up quick 🚗. And let's be real, EVs aren't invincible – charging can still take hours and public charging spots are still pretty sketchy 😒. It's about finding a balance between eco-friendliness and road maintenance 🌈.

Plus, think of it this way: if people have to pay for their daily drives, they might actually start using their EVs more thoughtfully 🤝. And what's the harm in having a little extra revenue to fund public transportation? It could make those services more reliable and efficient 🚂. I'm not saying it's perfect, but let's not dismiss it out of hand just yet 🙅‍♂️.
 
I gotta say, I'm all for finding ways to fund our public transport and roads, but this pay-per-mile idea is a bit worrying. I've got an electric car myself, and the thought of me paying more per mile is a bit off-putting 🤔. What if people can't afford it? That's just gonna widen the gap between those who can drive an EV and those who can't 😕. We need to find ways to make EVs more accessible to everyone, not create barriers. Maybe instead of charging per mile, we should focus on making public charging networks more affordable and convenient 🚗💸. That way, people can enjoy the benefits of driving an EV without breaking the bank 💸
 
I think it's so extra that they're even debating whether EV owners will be deterred or incentivized by higher costs lol 😂. Can't we just chill and focus on making our roads better for everyone? 🚗💨 I mean, pay-per-mile charges might make sense for funding public transport and road maintenance, but it's gotta be done in a way that doesn't hurt people who are already trying to live more sustainably 🌎. It's all about finding that balance, you know? We don't wanna price out the eco-friendly crowd, but we also need some way to make those roads safer and cleaner 🔧💚
 
I just had the craziest idea for a new restaurant concept 🤯 - think food trucks on wheels that can be parked anywhere! Like, imagine being able to grab a bite from the side of the road while you're driving... or even walking along the beach with your pup 🐶. The possibilities are endless! But anyway, back to EVs... I feel like we're so stuck on electric cars right now, but what about hydrogen fuel cells? Have anyone heard anything about that being a viable option in the near future? 🚀
 
I gotta say, I'm low-key divided about this pay-per-mile plan 🤔. On one hand, it's a solid idea for funding road maintenance and public transport – we need to make sure our infrastructure is eco-friendly too 💚. But on the other hand, I can see how it might price out some people who are just trying to switch to cleaner cars 🚗. It's like, if you're already feeling guilty about driving a gas-guzzler, an extra fee might be the last thing you need 😬.

I think we need to find a way to make this work that benefits everyone – not just the rich folks who can afford those fancy EVs 🤑. Maybe some kind of tiered system or something? I don't know, but it's definitely food for thought 💡.
 
I think it's a no-brainer - EV owners are gonna love paying more per mile 🤣. Like, who doesn't want to shell out extra cash for driving around? It's not like they're gonna be like "oh wait, I'll just switch to a Prius or something" or anything 😂. The government should totally do this and watch the whole eco-friendly thing tank in no time 🌪️. And btw, why are people even complaining about widening the gap between rich and poor? It's not like it's some kind of social issue or anything...
