production to satisfy demand there is no point in subsidizing it. Eventually energy from fossil fuel will cost more than renewable energy, but before it can be available all our investments in fossil fuel recovery and use will have to be replaced. Airplanes, buses, trucks, most railroad s, ships, etc. will become obsolete.
As far as ownong a car being a freedom, it is more than that, it is a necessity for many of us.
