Rapid Transition to Grid Enabled Vehicles Not Possible or Desirable

The expression "Watch the Money" applies in spades.

Seems like the 'policy paper' is window dressing for a federal handout to a diverse group of pigs at the trough.

There is no word for corrupted, prostituted writing and thinking. I'll go first and give it a (lame) try. Perhaps, someone with a more poetic head than mine will come up with something that makes it into the slang dictionary.

sponsearch = sponsored research

sponlyst = sponsored analyst

sponlaw = sponsored law

sponrev = sponsored revenue

Any takers?

Obama's Sweeping Changes for America's Cars

"The only caveat is that gas prices could be a lot higher than $2.50 or even $3.50 per gallon by 2015. Some analysts and industry officials think $5 or $6 gas is plausible within a decade. If that happens, obviously consumers won’t be saving money on gas, they’ll be paying more."

Math Quiz:
Does John save more (driving 12000 miles per year) when gas costs $2.50 or $5 per gallon?

12000/40 = 300 gals bought per year
300 gals x 2.50 = $750 cost of gas
300 gals x 5 = $1500 cost of gas

12000/25 = 480 gals bought per year
480 gals x 2.50 = $1200 cost of gas
480 gals x 5 = $2400 cost of gas

Savings when gas costs $2.50 = $450
Savings when gas costs $5.00 = $900
