Ferrari Mailing List: I am w/ Phil - Gas Mileage

[Mauricio Mesa (mesa_mauricio]

Reality is that the monopolies in the Oil & Gas Energy Sector don't want the 
technology to be implemented and through Special Interest lobbying have so far 
gotten away with it.  Lets not be naive here.

   I say BS, if you all think that creative thinking has been encouraged
   and allowed to produce what we want and what we need   then you need
   to get your head out of the sand. There is no doubt in my mind that
   the ability to move a 4000 lb. car at highway speeds comparable to our
   current usage and at mileage above 50 mpg. The problem being that
   those who control the technology are those who did not want this. Why
   would they?

   "Never did like the idea of govt deciding what kind of cars we'll
   have.  If a large part of the public wants electric cars there would be 
*someone* producing them."
