Yes
We are all immigrants (except the few remaining original inhabitants who we haven't killed.)
I can testify from personal experience that the standard method of cutting through the sternum to open the chest is the worst part of heart surgery. Takes forever to heal and you shouldn't use your arms for months to prevent it from opening up again until healed.

I gave up on Amazon Prime since delivery never made their "2nd day" promise.
I've switched to eBay where everything is cheaper (usually a lot cheaper) and most sellers use USPS which for me is as fast as Amazon Prime.
Adding batteries just costs a few cents/kWh.
China is well on its way to becoming an electrostate.
The US is stuck with high cost polluting fossils.
Numerous studies have shown that if you combine solar PV with batteries you can have 24/7/365 power at a LCOE that is about half that of fossil fuels or nuclear.
Just in time.
Never had an oil change for my EVs. Zero maintenance cost.
Yes, maybe I should change insurance or the car.
The Volt does have a unique drivetrain but it doesn't change the fundamental problem of hybrids which is a polluting inefficient high maintenance ICE.
AI stoked cars belong on closed streets, not on public roads killing the innocent.
Robotaxis won't be any cheaper than other taxis and Tesla's "FSD" is not safer (probably less safe) than human drivers.
Friction is a drag.
