Hybrid vehicles
can change the world today.
The only question, today, is cost-effectiveness. So, we're
supposed to wait until fuel cells, we're told by the American
auto establishment?
How cost-effective are fuel cells?
Instead of giving billions to the oil industry with the Energy
Bill, perhaps Congress should give it to GM to produce some
hybrid vehicle "Freedom Fighter" fleets. Buy this
hybrid car, end foreign oil dependency, make America stronger.
Instead we're asking filthy rich oil barons to solve our
problems, until fuel cells?
Who does Congress represent? American automakers invested far
too much of their future into SUVs because Congress made it
profitable for them to do so - at the expense of America's
national security.
While I believe in laissez-faire economics, foreign-oil
dependency has led to two wars in Iraq, terrorism against the
United States, and life-shortening pollution.
I'd say its quite clear that gas-guzzling products have put
America's peace and property rights at risk, without question.
America's transportation habits have significantly increased
America's dependence upon foreign oil, while exposing Americans
to significant physical and economic risk.
When Congress gives billions to oil companies, an industry that
saw $23 billion in profits in just the first 3 months of this
year, to help, that's 23 billion reasons for me to demand nothing
less than hybrid car efficiency now.
