Well maybe she thinks that the fuel standards will make the cost of automobiles too high. If a car is available that gets 100 miles per gallon but costs two million and can only travel 10 miles before it needs to be charged, that is not much of a solution. lj

"hen they would have supported President Obama's initiative to raise the fuel economy standards for vehicles sold in the U.S. Why aren't they into CONSERVing energy?" Because they are into CONSERVING lives, the only way to get fuel economy standards up is to make them smaller and lighter, which means death traps. What is it for every 1 MPG saved 10000 lives are lost every year
