23 Billion reasons to buy a hybrid car

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 the oil industry, 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.

More on hybrid cars.

Ridiculous arguments - cant see how gas guzzlers have caused two wars. I thought it was the money making capitalist supercop mental make up that did it. Ooops!

HMMM? Why did the U.S. stop Iraq in the first Iraq War? I'm sure it had nothing to do with Saudi Arabian oil fields and was purely civil rights orientated.

Why does America have a huge Persian Gulf fleet, just to protect Israel?

Why does Bin Laden insist that the U.S. leave Saudi Arabia?

Give me a break. It's Americans buying gas-guzzlers that requires the Super Cop mentality in the Middle East.

Do you ever watch the business news? Oil is the biggest story right now. If the U.S. was cut off from Saudi Arabian oil, what would happen, nothing? It wouldn't affect the economy at all, huh?

Gas prices would rise to more than $5.00 per gallon, Ford and GM would go into bankruptcy, and every single product would cost more money. Then the stock market would crash, the housing bubble would burst and the American economy would be in shambles.

Sounds great!

What, do you drive a gas guzzler, or something?
