The government will seek to regulate maintenance and fueling needs of ICE vehicles with the intent to make it prohibitively expensive to own and operate one.

Increasingly expensive commutes will fall the hardest on those living in the suburbs, while at the same time cities inner cores become more crime ridden and dangerous.

The poor will get poorer and the ultra rich will get ultra richer. The middle class will continue to be priced into lower and lower standards of living.

Think 1984, but worse.
