"ECON 101 Chris" really wishes that we were much more effective at communicating the costs of and pricing externalities. I wish California success in their experiment (huzzah for Laboratories of Democracy!), but I wouldn't wager on it.

Regarding batteries: Tesla has moved/is moving towards using lithium iron phosphate batteries, which cost less, have a longer overall lifespan (charging cycle-wise), with less capacity degradation, and are safer than lithium batteries that use cobalt-based versions.
