Bush funded this because he knew that an all electric car would be too small for our automakers to make money off of.
What this administration doesn’t understand is, the UAW makes the production of small cars in this country impossible.
If you want small cars you have to build them in another part of the country and where the UAW isn’t there.
Bush was being nice to them, trying to provide the UAW (his political enemies) with jobs. I don’t think the Democrats are going to be as nice.
What the heck are you talking about? They will just give them money with no expectation to produce anything.

Like the present range of Fiats (err... Chryslers).

This is their UK range... but I'm sure they make them with left side steering wheels...:^)
