President Trump gave Mr. Musk the authority to look at the budget

Rick McCollough

How best to find wasteful government spending than to go to the source of the payments. Musk isn’t going to stop or interfere with SS payments or any other social programs.

k san

He and his early 20-yr old hires already are making changes and have been given authority to those systems! It is a travesty!!

Latterdaysaint

Of course he should have access, DOGE has saved 100 million dollars so far!

Things are getting strange enough with now having a co-president.

Latterdaysaint

Elon musk and DOGE has about 100 million dollars so far!

k san

Absolutely not!! He is not elected and Trump has taken away the authority of many departments and given it to a man who made a Naze salute at the inauguration. He is unfit and should NOT be allowed anywhere near the levers of power!

k san

Can you say, "ZIPDRIVES"! Elon now owns all of US. We are all now being saved by the richest man on the planet..... Hallelujah!!!

No American 🇺🇲, elected Musk‼️

Michael McKay

That system is our most secure data system and a non elected, or person who has not been properly vetted should not have access to such a sensitive system.

There's something magical about a sprinkling of snow on Christmas 😊 And heavy enough snow means snow angels, snowmen, and snowball fights! ❄️

Belinda Kitchen

The older I get - since I don't ski any more - snow just represents work for me, so if I never saw another snow flake, it would be just fine with me!

I now own my second hybrid.

k san

If they ever made one that could go longer distances. I have seen only 1 recharging station for such cars at Fred Meyer. To make them attractive, need many more recharging stations. Until then, no thx

Rachel

I love my hybrid <3

Stuart Alpert

Why not?

Joseph Nelson

My next vehicle will be an EV.

Torina Wilson

How about YES!, but it’s too expensive. Therefore, I’ll wait

Kerie Raymond

We have an EV for local & shorter range trips (have gone to Vancourver, WA & Eugene, OR) and a Hybrid for longer range trips. Electricity is $10/month, and nothing once we have PV. No maintenance cost

No, too expensive

Electric vehicles need to be cheaper for me to invest in one. I'm just trying to get from point A to point B on a budget!

Because I want to make that choice being I'm a free individual in the United States of America. Free to make my own choices and not be told by a dictator governor of the State of Oregon. FDKB.

Fred Colbern

Government is already controlling you when you drive. Ever stop at a stoplight? That's some university indoctrinated bureaucrat deciding how long you will be made to sit there and wait for his little technocracy to "turn the light green" so you can go.

George Pearson

No one forced me! I love getting 50 mpg while gas guzzlers are paying my share!

GT Thomas

I do not want a vehicle liberals try to force on me.

George Pearson

No one is forcing you! Watch something else beside Fox for a change, to get a full picture!

Bob A. Bui

Screwing your kids/grandchildren to own the libs? Nice.

poor turtle

I mean I would but they are too expensive. Honestly I would rather to not drive at all and take the bus everywhere but that isn't currently realistic.

Karen Barker Rouse

Can’t imagine it would make long road trips easy.

Kerie Raymond

Not easy, but doable! Worth it in the long run.

Douglas E. Wilson

We are being priced out of everything by so called do gooders!

Robert Northrup

If it would meet my needs yes. Unfortunately there are none currently that can.

Larry Ewart

I recently traveled over 1800 miles by car I cannot imagine how much longer that trip would have taken because of the limited miles that it takes for an EV

Ed Drahos

The answer itself is explanatory enough. It's too expensive. Yet the charging situation isn't set up to be a reasonable solution. This is because the industry is totally out for reoccurring profits to charge for such electric vehicles. You can blame commercialism for this greed.

Latterdaysaint

Waste of money

J H

Because the majority are NOT truly environmentally friendly! Would consider a hybrid.

Christena

I've always wanted a hybrid but having my vehicles paid off it's just not worth it.

dan bob

Although it’s environmentally friendly, it is far too expensive. Perhaps in the future when corporations become competitive in this area and sell vehicles at cheaper prices.

Hugh Jjggh

It’s not that it’s too expensive I just like gas powered cars and I love hearing the engine rev unfortunately kids today will never understand not only what that 3rd pedal is for but also a real car

Heidi Owen

Most people I know cannot afford them, but I'll bet kate brown can....

Kerie Raymond

We were fortunate to buy an EV new with substantial discounts and rebates, credits. $16K for a $34K new car. I don't think it's too expensive.

Ben Wiborg

Expensive or not the power cells are the problem when it come to disposal or manufacture.

Sam Ackerman

NO, I will however buy a vehicle that fits my needs.
