Sadly, that would reduce GDP by lowering spending. Can't happen.

I'm slightly joking, but only slightly.

I've built my own ebikes since I was a teen in the 2000s. I love them, and wish more people would use them to get around day to day. There has been such a lackluster or hostile adoption by "the powers that be" of them, I just can't see it actually making a difference in American transportation though.

At least we aren't the UK though. They have been so hostile to ebikes and escooters for a couple decades now I couldn't imagine bothering if I lived there.
