It is stealing.
There's really no other way to paint it in the end.
No matter the turns we give it, it's a form of stealing. Especially taking into account that it was never democratic. In other words, if there had been a referendum asking the people "would you like to subsdize EVs with X or Y amount, raising your taxes/debt in Z, etc, etc, etc?". That would be something else. But that kind of thing only happens in Switzerland.
So yes, especially taking into account in its current form, it is very accurate to describe all of this as a form of stealing.
Bastiat in the 1800's was already describing this kind of thing as legal plunder. That's exactly what it is. Legal plunder.
Rothbard also in the 1970s used the term legal plunder to describe these kind of very large subsidized government contracts, etc.
This is very very bad and completely immoral.
At a bare minimum we need to ask the people.
