Default Fuel prices moving up, just in time for spring boating and driving?

"Bert Robbins" wrote in message
...

I'm not arguing that choices should be taken away. You keep saying this.
So, let's try another way. According to Ford, the company trying to
develop a much more efficient SUV, but with the same physical size &
comfort features of their current ones. They will still continue to sell
the more powerful ones, as well. This information came from a Ford
spokesperson. DO YOU BELIEVE THIS STATEMENT IS TRUE?


Whether the statement is true or false is irrelevant.


More drivel. Not surprising.



Why do you want to control the public's behavior? Why do you want to
take away their freedom by removing choices?


I'm describing how a company is developing a NEW set of choices, not
taking away an existing choice. How do you interpret that as a desire on
my part to limit choices?


But, the real choice is to make the consumer pay more or less. The hybrid
is the more costly of the two choices. And, the government will try to
remove the less costly choice.


Sorry. I didn't know you were involved with formulating pricing for Ford
products. Is that where you work? Or, do you have other information about
prices for products they haven't begun selling yet?
