Oh,, you also forgot one thing. The government taxes the living ****
out of us on gasoline and other fuels.
Yet, the same government is telling us not to drive.


That same government, being paid to keep out tiny Eurocars and Asiacars
that get fantastic mileage by the Big Iron boys in Detroit, won't let me
buy a Smart Car from Mercedes or one of these simply amazing machines:

The roadblocks put up by the auto and oil company-controlled government
bureaucracy is why American can't buy a little car. They're not allowed
to, any more!

The Carver is a cross between a microcar and a motorcycle. This can't be
a "safety issue" because I'm allowed to buy an open motorcycle with 2
wheels and no protection from hundreds of companies....but I'm not
allowed to have a Carver, a motorcycle I can ride in the rain or cold
without freezing or getting wet. Carver, a Dutch company just starting
to build these, says it's too costly and complex to sell in America.
Many other companies agree. The stupids in Detroit, of course, can't
build a small car that doesn't fall apart. They can't build a big car
that doesn't fall apart, either. I have one of those.
