The difference is that JFK mandated/facilitated industry to "...go to the Moon and do all the other things", not private citizens. I wasn't forced to drink Tang or eat dehydrated food in grade school to facilitate the space race. I'm all for the gummn't to mandate/facilitate industry, though.

I’d rather see the federal government use all those $7500s toward charging infrastructure improvements and battery technology research. A one-time tax credit isn’t going to convince Joe Sixpack that EVs are a viable alternative to ICE. In fact, the only thing that SHOULD convince Joe Sixpack is...

I’d just buy a Tundra if I wanted an ICE.

I don’t think International has anything to do with Scout Motors. In fact, if you look at the disclaimers in Scout’s emails and other advertising, they explicitly disavow any service/manufacturing affinity to previous generations of International Harvester vehicles. My guess is that Scout’s...
