Automobile alliance manufacturer propaganda

The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers has been releasing the same press release before autoshows throughout the Midwest. "99% Cleaner Vehicles Now Available to Consumers in Showrooms".

While the Alliance is currently fighting clean air restrictions about to be required by California legislation, U.S. legislation, and Canadian legislation, it is apparently - once again - trying to put the blame on consumers. "We're making them, demand just isn't there. We don't need government legislation, just consumer interest. It's too expensive."

Lies, lies, lies.

Lines and waiting lists for every hybrid vehicle available. Protests against GM and Ford for ending electric car production.

Are automakers really trying to appease consumers, or shareholders?

More people should learn about electric vehicles as a solution. "Zero emissions" is something that's going to be required by law one day (you know it will). Making the decision to go electric is far cheaper anyway, like 10 cents on the dollar vs. gas. (source: zapworld.com)
