The ones that are productive and responsible. What other type is there to prefer? We're kind of off-topic by going down this line of questioning. So let me try to get back to it:The country is made up of people. Which people do you prefer ?
I don't like subsidies of any kind. Not for anybody. I don't feel it's the governments job to hand out taxpayer dollars to specific causes or interests - to pick winners and losers. Let the free market do that as people are intelligent enough to know what's good for them (mostly). A low income family can't afford to buy an electric car any time soon so they won't benefit from their tax dollars being handed out to people who will. They are likely driving beat up used cars and probably will for some time to come - until Tesla or someone else starts selling an affordable EV.
Besides, it's too easy for them (Congress critters) to pile into a stock (or have their spouse buy in so they can claim 'it wasn't me!'), knowing they are going to be advocating for it. How many people get elected to Congress 'wealthy' and come out filthy rich?
