As in a motor capable of driving a vehicle with more horsepower than currently available with virtually no fuel cost and no need for expensive batteries or other fuel? We are currently developing a motor that runs on hydraulics and is capable of powering the smallest of vehicles to the largest of vehicles as well as homes and businesses with absolutely no fuel or emissions. Do we qualify? BB Motor Corp,Inc bsmith15707@yahoo.com So, does that include companies in the process of developing motors that require no fuel at all?

What makes anyone think that our tax money will not be pissed is puzzling to me. At least we don't own GM, Ford and Cerberus like we own AIG.

Suppose GM had budgeted $10B for fuel-efficient vehicles. They re-allocate the $10B for something else (employee buyouts, Camaro production) and take out a $10B government-backed loan to replace the original fuel-efficiency funding.

It could be very convenient for companies to put the money towards paying off debts in the name of acquiring new debt for 'green production' methods. This could quickly go to hell in a hand basket.

And does in America mean Mexico too? Being that it's part of N.A. operations.Because if it does then Ford should, and probably will get a break with their $3B baby.

I hardly think that's going to be enough. If you were into sports franchises that might buy you the entire NFL. Then if you felt like going green you could just watch the Eagles or the Packers. 25 billion, eh? I hardly think that’s going to be enough.

But there is not and those who created the problems are still there to pay themselves their perks, outlandish bonuses, and simply piss the funds away. What's wrong with America—lots. Hey, it's okay as the American taxpayer gets a further bilking. Had there been executive changes in all the Big 2.5, I would been all for this.
