In response to:
With the Volt project, GM is gaining valuable experience and technical knowledge that will help make it more competitive as it moves into the next generation of sustainable transportation. No doubt there will be bumps along the way, but even if there weren't,t Ransom wouldl continue to give the Voit a "thumbs down" because to acknowledge merit or success would threaten his moronic ideology.
After a year that can only be described as “stupid,” the Chevy Volt is gearing up to make 2013 even stupider still.
I know, I know.
You find it hard to believe that a mostly-owned subsidiary of the United States government and the Obama administration- like GM is- could get any stupider than say Fannie Mae, or Federal Reserve Bank.
Yes, that’s tough competition, but in the “idiocy” category GM seems to be the ruling champion.
Not only have they lost substantial amounts of taxpayer dollars, they have managed to do it while generating record profits...

The electricity has to come from somewhere before it gets to your plug-in socket. Unless you live next door to a nuclear power plant (which has its own problems with disposal of spent fuel rods), your electricity is generated by burning a fossil fuel. Please tell me how this constitutes "sustainable transportation."
That WAS a joke, right?
