If NEVs are such a good idea, why is the US TAXPAYER being forced to help people buy them?

It they WERE such a Great Idea, the would not NEED taxpayer money!!!

Absoultely!

I bet semiconductor manufacturing technology could be used to manufacture these ESDs (Energy Storage Devices). Since they are not chemical in nature, I hesitate to call them batteries.

Where do you insert the winding key???

Oh, right... it's battery operated. (nevermind)

Statism stifles innovation?

As the USA morphs into a Regressive Corporatist Social-Fascist Police State under ObaMao and the Regressives in Congress and the Courts, let's take a moment to remember that today, in 1991, the leaders of Russia, Belarus and Ukraine signed an agreement officially dissolving the Soviet Union.

Regressive Statism and Keynesian Central Planning Economics had left the U.S.S.R. bankrupt, and people poor and hungry. Redistributive Collectivism FAILED AGAIN.

Keynes forgot ONE thing in his economic calculations... human nature. We are NOT ants or bees and we NEED hope for gain before we can risk fear of losing our investment capital while starting a business venture.

If all endeavors are centrally regulated and all gain is redistributed, then there is NO incentive to risk labor and capital. The society dies of stagnation. This is why the 9th and 10th Amendments to our Constitution were designed to limit the Commerce Clause and the term Necessary and Proper so that We, the People would be free to compete among ourselves and the States would be free to compete with each other for citizen and business taxpayers.

Regressive Statist Democrats and NeoCons Regressives are truly fools. They do the same evil thing over and over expecting a different result while individual liberty, personal prosperity and personal responsibility are given to the State.

SHAME on US for following the Soviet’s lead!

Nazferat??? What's in a name? Apperantly... a LOT! (child)

The taxpayer will be FORCED to GIVE anyone a FREE electric car. Hurry while Regressive politicians remain spendthrift IDIOTS and supplies last! (or we get rid of those working hard to bankrupt us all.)

Nazferat, It will be flat again if the Regressives kill the American Dream. Why do liberals use labels and insults? Because their economics don’t work. EVERY nation that has tried it has caused their people to suffer until the state collapses of it's own debt AND because Humans are NOT ants or bees!

Jim Corteau, "What is the American Dream" you ask? Well, the dream is that anybody, with a little capital, a good idea and a LOT of hard work can become Bill Gates, President (oh my) or reach ANY level of success he or she desires. That's dead now thanks to Regressive Redistribution. Welcome to the land of mediocrity. We use to be known as the land of the FREE and the home of the BRAVE. Now we're the land of the entitled and the home of the bailed out.

When you artificially level the playing field, nobody dreams to risk for gain because success will just be taxed and regulated taken away. THAT is why the Soviets built CRAP and their people suffered and THAT is why the State spent itself into oblivion and THAT is what will happen to the WHOLE WORLD if the IDIOT Keynesian Regressives get their way.

If the Regressives get their way, all the wars for freedom and liberty against STATE tyranny would have been fought in vain. We will NOT let that happen in the USA!!!

Globalists (Regressives) had to create this FALSE emergency called Man-Made Global Warming before the people would accept Social-Fascist Corportist SLAVERY & the redistribution of money & power FROM the people TO Global Bankers, the Giant Corporations they own & the corrupt politicians & Special Interest Groups they control through contributions.

$Trillions will be redistributed to giant corporations for "Green" technologies and wall street for CO2 trading schemes PLUS all the political power will be concentrated in Global Govt & New Global Financial Order.

Liberals have been played and will pay for this scam in jobs and the death of the American Dream!

Reality Hurts

True, but the ends do NOT justify the means if the means are lies and the ends are Global Statist Social-Facist Corporatism of, by and FOR the banking elite, the giant global corporations they own and their Regressive Political cronies.

Truth is MUCH more powerful than lies because it is stong in light AND in dark! Truth may hurt a little now, but it is much better to face that pain than to pain of lost integrity and lost reputation. Cry WOLF too many times and nobody listens when it's real!
