i'm less interested in the objective idea of fairness and more interested in the practical realities of what it would take to successfully transition to electric vehicles.
if there's a massive political upheaval halfway through that results in political and economic instability (which of course would at a minimum jeopardize the transition itself), then that wouldn't be what i would call a successful transition.
since governments are already getting involved by subsidizing (and therefore are engineering a transition) i argue that they need to take a holistic approach and also engineer a path forward for those who will lose livelihoods and businesses as a result of those subsidies.
