All cars were new cars once. If a majority of new cars are EVs, then it is only a matter of time before most used cars are as well.

It's not (just) a matter of money. Even in China a third of new vehicles are EVs, and Estonia is much richer than China.

EVs already attained mass adoption. In Norway almost all new cars are EVs. Several countries are not far behind. Most countries are more suitable for EVs than Norway.

As for taxes, I do it in a few minutes through the free government-provided online portal.

Then again, you probably don't have to sign so many Datenschutzerklärungen...

In the Eurozone private banks simply have to facilitate wire transfers to other accounts free of charge and instantly. People do it through their bank's app or website, usually. This is regulated through the SEPA.

Actually, we're not a long way off from that. Hydrogen production facilities utilizing (excess) renewable electricity output are under construction as we speak. For example, a large project in Kazakhstan (which has large stretches of windy, sunny and empty steppes) is aiming to be online in 2030 with 30 GW of production going towards green hydrogen.

Income inequality can just be set through fiscal policy. It doesn't matter how much "cash" the rich want to hoard if they can't do it (as much) because it was already taxed.
