Obama walks in and all of a sudden we have more and more companies and banks being told what they can and cannot do.

Maybe the loop holes will save us from becoming the socialist states of America. The blind and in love voted in a man who is of color ... that's about it. A man who I really believe does not love America.

Here is another fun article that I found and my thoughts on it:


Obama expands government's role in auto industry

"The United States will lead the world in building the next generation of clean cars," he [Obama] said.
The only clean fuel car I know of is by Honda, the FCX Clarity and that is out on the streets of CA and doing well enough that as more hydrogen stations become available so will the car.

So how will the US lead in this? Is there a another car out there by a US manufacturer that is hydrogen?

Also in that article they said the Chevy Volt is too expensive and will fail. Well that car has been touted as the one that will lead the way. And isn't the Tesla already out there and a more affordable version being produced?

You know instead of worrying that a US Manufac will lead the way maybe he needs to court those who are successful to build in this country. Tesla builds in CA. Get Honda to start building the Clarity over here and give money to gas stations to support hydrogen pumps.

Oh wait, that is too simple and doesn't make me more powerful. That can't be the right answer then.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
