where is my electric car?

The glass teat brought something back to my attention....Who Killed the Electric Car? If you haven't seen it, you should. It's been playing on Green TV along with An Inconvenient Truth. Sometimes I think I should watch something like that every day, to keep me motivated and focused on what is really important. It's hard to stay focused and really hard to figure out what is truly important, but I digress.

I was thinking... now that We The People own General Motors we could just demand that they start producing the electric vehicles again. We can all send emails, snail mail, make phone calls and petition our elected representatives with requests or demands that GM start producing EVs again. Why not?

Yeah, I know. It's not that simple. Most of our elected reps are bought and/or hostage to special interests. And then there's the problem of the conspiracy that really did kill the electric car. Those people are hard to identify. Could Al Gore be involved or is it just good investing?

But seriously, try to learn who owns what. It's not easy to get a clear big picture through the foggy web of debt. One thing is clear, too few own too much. It's hard to blame another for wanting to look out for their own interests, but when one's interests are destroying the quantity and quality of life on this planet....where's the love?
