Default Would $10 million do it?

Saving and creating jobs.


Who was at the switch when they decided all those batteries for the new
electric cars were to be built in South Korea?


Do you know what is involved in the manufacture of a battery? Do you
know what is involved in the recycling of a battery for "the new
electric cars?"

Battery manufacturing is the most evnironmentally unfriendly process
there is on the face of the earth. Do you know where there lithium comes
from and what they have to do to get it into the batteries?

They haven't even figured out how to recycle LIon batteries yet.

Have you thought about what kind of environmental mess there will be
when an LIon battery is compromised in an auto crash and what the cost
to you will be to clean it up?

It would be funny if it weren't so sick.


If you want the manufacturing of dirty products like batteries to come
back to the US you need to do something to quell the uproar from the
environmentalist because they have chased all of the "dirty"
manufacturers out of the country.
