Reply to comment by MoreCleverUserName in DC Council bills propose rebates of up to $2,000 for residents who buy ebikes | WJLA by aNeonSpecter

What’s the cheapest car you can get? What do new car tires cost? Ebikes are a stupid cheap car replacement.

$600 (agree with another poster that that’s way too cheap) is like 6-8 months of car insurance.

$600 still isn’t CHEAP for a whole lot of people though. It’s not about the price of the car you’re comparing it to. It’s about the value of $600 that a whole lot of people don’t have just laying around.

Ok then what do those people do literally anytime their car needs anything? Literally compared it to a car price. What can you get for your car that’s $600? Like a few new tires?
