You couldnt be more wrong.

Hybrids are like putting a band-aid on a arterial rupture.
They are not feasible, not cost effective, and useless on the highways or in reverse.

Also, battery powered cars. LMFAO do you have any idea what that would mean. Burning more coal!(65% of U.S. power comes from coal) So we would trade a oil addiction for a coal addiction. AND we would have rolling blackouts while the build up of more power plants took place.

The future my friend is hydrogen or some other augmentation to the internal combustion engine, which will not be widespread for another 25 plus years. So get used to 5 dollar a gallon gas prices and you might wanna get your bus pass reissued.
