>> You should learn to listen to the liberal media......they usually get it right...

Great, well-informed reply, ted. This is, of course, what we've come to expect of you.

>> why is the Volt a horrible decision?

1. Weak demand.
2. Insane cost to build means it will be dead before it is profitable, GM's claims notwithstanding.
3. Insanely high price to consumers means it can't compete without government subsidies which are going to have to go at some point (hopefully soon).
4. Better technology available elsewhere.

>> I foget that quality of life has different meanings in different places.

It really does.
