Well if you want to seriously go into subsidies you might want to look into how effective the oil lobby has been.
All subsidies for energy should be discontinued and let it play out....but it's gotta be a level playing field so dealing with battery creating and recycling and your "occasional environmental disaster" cleanup (new horizons, leaded gas, etc, etc) needs to be accounted for.
