How PHEVs and EVs Will Sabotage America's Drive for Energy Independence

solution: end subsidies for everything. by ending subsidies, i mean stop keeping failed automakers alive, stop subsidizing oil, gas and coal exploration, production and refining. stop funding alternative energy research and production and stop subsidizing farms. while they're at it they should end the tax breaks which favor one type of energy over another.
once the risk of prospecting for oil is not funded by the taxpayer and one battery is not favored by congress over another. once the government decides that corn ethanol is not the answer a level playing field for all sources of energy can emerge. when this happens, the consumer will decide which is the most efficient and the others will have to go back to the drawing board at their own expense. this is the American way
