Interesting Take on Electric Cars.

The once mighty GM was a product of capitalism, the new disaster of GM is a product of socialism.  If capitalism would have been allowed to function properly as GM achieved success and bought up other brands and became more competitive and that was rewarded with more success.  Then as the execs, unions, shareholders, etc were taken over by greed and finally took the company down, instead of taxpayers bailing them out the company should have been sold off.  Buick to so and so, Pontiac another, Cadillac to another, etc.  Then the process could have started over with the hands of many at the top  competing to make a better product at a better price,  instead we have the pockets of many drained into a company that is a shell of it's former self, but still controlled by a few new idiots at the top.

Same for Chrysler, except now it's controlled by a Italian bike manufacturer.  Although I'll cut them a little slack because they are building the Dodge TRX 4X4, and I heard it's slightly faster than a bike getting a load from point a to point b.

Then this leads to the all too prevalent wind power SPECTACULAR failures
