Re: FORD CEO ALAN MULALLY TESTIFIES ON CAPITOL HILL
Heard this on Hannity this afternoon:
The government is not without blame. You've got the politicians that are in the pockets of the environmental whack jobs, the unions, insurance companies, & anybody else with a special interest & money. Thanks to their regulations (influenced by these groups) that they imposed on the automakers, they are forced to develop technology in order to meet the mandates. They get beat up for improving gas mileage, because the government won't allow new exploration, new drilling or new refineries.
I'm all for the improvements made in cars & trucks recently, but I believe that we would have gotten them even without government mandates & the cost impact to them would not have been as great as it is when they get stuffed forced on them.
