After doing a lot of research on the electric car and how it just was not to be again… and how it was ripped out from people that were willing to sign away any and all rights and go as far to sign agreements not to ever sue for anything that happened to them because of the car… many were willing to go to that extent… to never have to pay for gas again…

I am talking about the GM EV1 using NiMH Batteries. From what I am reading the EV1 could go over 100 miles on a charge. 100 miles… and if you had a small commute to work of 5-10 miles that’s great you would only use 10-20 miles worth of battery power a day.. Only having to charge the car, if that’s all you did once every 2-3 days.

The maintenance costs were next to nothing. The only real big cost is the battery that would have to be changed out every 3-5 years or so if the car was still running using that battery technology.

There was no maintenance, no spark plugs no wires, no distributor and the cap and router, there was only 5-10% of the mechanical parts that could break down on it, in comparison.

We have to look at this realistically here… you can not have a car that burns no gas and does not break down a lot.. IT’S NOT GOOD… You put people out of work with a car that efficient… you eliminate a mechanic’s job or two or over 100,000 American jobs just there alone…

But lets talk about building those parts… well how many of them are REALLY made in America any more, so there is not a loss of American jobs… but only if those are not American made parts… if there were American made parts then you would have lost more American Jobs… who cares about the rest of the world… elected politicians only care about Americans… at least we think so anyways…

Then we have to look at the people that work in the oil and gas industry… we just would not need those people, they would be useless… we would not need refineries, oil platforms, drillers, and the like that work out there… but then you forget the truck drivers that are put out of work because there are no refineries to make gas… then you don’t really need oil companies and executives and the like and support people there at corporate offices… and the little guys that run each and every gas station out there from the managers/owners to the employees… Let us examine in the USA alone that has to be over 100 thousand to over a million people at least… think about this… and understand there is more to all this then people imagine.

Now when you do not need all those people that are primary bread winners in the family… and they now have been trained in a profession that is defunct… where society as it is stands…

The EV1 was never mass marketed because simply it put people out of work… and in the end; elected officials actually saw what was sold to them…

The hell with your health and the air you breathe if it puts people out of work… your one person in the grand scheme of things you can die… it does not matter… and honestly that’s how big business feels…

They believe in money and the bottom line not your health and not the environment. If it destroys the way we live then you know what that’s not good…

The basic principle of change is that you have to be willing to change and be willing to struggle though any issues that come up, instead of running away…

Its going to be the small people that make the change, not the big business… its going to have to be all us small businesses working together as one and all us people concerned.

Park that gas guzzler, get LED Lights get off the grid… insulate the interior walls of your house… get rid of that 40 gallon water tank and get an on demand system… have them put under the sinks in your new home, think of how much it costs to keep your water hot sitting on standby..

Creating a better world has never been a prime concern of big business and rich moguls. Solving problems is not there concern. It is sad that corporations and moguls can destroy a great idea and destroy our world at the same time.

It is sad that they will tell us the technology is not here, and does not work and people buy it hook, line and sinker.  It says that people are just as stupid as you get. People are as stupid as they get, when they would do something like this to placate to big oil.  Thank you for not giving a damn about your progeny, and thank you for not caring.
