Fox News: Harris touts growing up in middle class while pushing mandate most 'won't be able to afford': economist
Vice President Harris emphasizes her commitment to building a strong middle class, advocating for investments in manufacturing, housing, and education. However, the Biden administration's push for electric vehicle (EV) mandates is criticized for being impractical for most middle-class Americans, who largely reject EVs due to high costs.
Economists argue that the current EV market, with average prices exceeding $56,000, excludes many middle-class families from affordability. Surveys indicate a significant portion of middle-income Americans are not considering EV purchases, raising concerns about the viability of the administration's mandates.
