Most of my picks have been mentioned already, but I had a blast with Mullet Madjack. A tongue in cheek riff on 80s anime in a boomer shooter where you have 10 seconds to live, but each enemy kill gives you 2 more seconds of life.

Those programs do have an effect on pricing. Not 1 to 1 with the cost subsidization and even if it does there's plenty of arguments to keep programs like that around.

However I'd rather see moves made to encourage positive behaviors, like purchasing an electric vehicle, that didn't translate into a dealership subsidy.

Yeah, this is my issue with the government incentives for EVs, especially now that they are more common and can be deducted from the sale price. Most retailers are just jacking up the price to whatever the cap for the rebate is while pretending it's still a good deal.
