You throw around so much hyperbole and ad hominem it’s difficult, and not worth the effort, to keep track of exactly who you’re talking about.

Part of your problem is you obsess on the “green” aspect. In the long run a “green” car gets good fuel mileage and has limited to zero emissions. That’s it. And there’s nothing wrong with either. As a survivor of the 70s and LA smog alerts I can attest that less pollution is good even after you assume global warming is a hoax, crap in the air still sucks. And better fuel efficiency leaves more money for the fun parts of life. Yeah the hippies like it when you get a “green” car, but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

There’s nothing wrong with having buses run on bio-diesel. It’s a good fuel source that’s converted waste product and therefore very cheap, and diesel engines are fuel efficient and burn cleanly. And since those are government buses it’s YOUR tax dollars fueling them, wouldn’t you prefer they get the best mileage for your buck?

I’m not into hybrids because I haven’t bought into the 2 engine model, too many moving parts, too much engine being ballast at any given time. But all electric isn’t a bad idea. If my car regularly parked near an outlet and I never went to Phoenix I’d get one. Even without government rebates for people in certain lifestyles they make solid economic sense. Just because hippies like them doesn’t mean they’re bad, it just means if you buy one used it’ll probably stink of patchouli.

there’s nothing wrong with coal and oil. that’s why you liberals/democrats had to invent a hoax called global warming to demonize coal and oil

that’s what our civilization runs on coal and oil and has been created on

democrats want to destroy capitalism and civilization so they create the green movement, global warming hoax etc.
they also want to enslave us. you are helping them in that evil goal.
