Again, it wasn’t Obama’s idea or any democrat’s idea to develop driverless cars.
People seem to be confusing or conflating driverless with electric vehicles. They’re not the same technology or the same idea.
What Obama and democrats wanted and want, is power that’s not derived from fossil-fuels. As such, they would be destroying a lot of the tax sources for their huge and never-ending big government programs. But, what the democrats want is not really to end fossil-fuel usage, but to control the energy sector, like they want to control everything else. In essence, they want the issues with which to bash republicans with, and once they get complete control of government and complete government oversight of all industries with regulations, then, they would rethink their opposition to fossil-fuels, since the opposition would not longer matter and they would have achieved their ultimate goals of complete control over all the economy and over all the people. IOW, the liberals’ opposition to fossil-fuels is just a ruse in order to attain their complete agenda.
I don’t want to see people getting too hopped up over these driver-less vehicles because they take the fun out of driving and I think there are millions of car owners who would agree. If the technology is supposed to be yet another one of those things that saves us from ourselves then I’m not interested. Driving a car is fun. Being driven in a car isn’t unless you’ve been invited to join in a limo party.
