LOL So, you couldn't prove that no jobs were created in the US (your first assertion)?
As for subsidies? Of course, any new technologies are expensive. Subsidies do help in developing the market and creating jobs. Not to mention, lowering the price of transportation for ordinary citizens. Why would you have a problem with that?
Plus, are you this mad about subsidies for coal and oil?
Globally, governments spend more than $500 billion on subsidies for fossil fuels that contribute to inefficiency, inequity, and negative externalities. Despite this obvious problem, efforts at reforming fossil fuel subsidies across the world have been piecemeal. If countries are to achieve the decarbonization goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change, they need to urgently address these subsidies as part of the transition away from fossil fuels.
The report found that 47 percent of natural gas and 99 percent of coal is priced at less than half its true cost, and that just five countries — China, the United States, Russia, India, and Japan — account for two-thirds of subsidies globally. All five countries belong to the G20, which in 2009 agreed to phase out “inefficient” fossil fuel subsidies “over the medium term.”

I would rather have the subsidies directed at industries that do not cause pollution.
