On this week’s only slightly late episode of Grease the Wheels, Uncle Jimmy takes another swing at the problems we can fix - only this time it is the people in your building. We also examine whether the switch to EV’s is going to decrease the number of help wanted signs seen around shops. For some reason, the author of this article seems to think that EV’s are immune to the universal law of entropy and will never need any form of repairs and maintenance. Because of this, the author predicts that California will be down 32k auto mechanic jobs by 2040. Unfortunately for the author, because of the tax and regulatory nature of that state - that’s what they’re losing a year just to Texas! The real ramifications of California’s ICE Vehicle ban is that it is going to end up looking like Cuba, only hopefully the engines come from Wyoming and Nevada instead of Russia. 

Also Uncle Jimmy gives a history lesson.
