Sweet now let's raise it on foreign billionaires who try to defraud our EV rebates

Let's also do domestic billionaires (yea we have some).

Why have an EV rebate at all. Im sure the poor are overjoyed to gift their landlord a rebate for their new EV sports car. Meanwhile we are the only country in the G7 without high speed rail, while many of our highways were built in the 1960s.

Tbf high speed rail is now in the works, although moving at a pretty glacial pace.

I'm kind of hoping they will. The government does not have too much money right now. I see no reason not to add a few percent to the top or second-to-top tax bracket.
