One more example of greed over public good. Very sad.

See the movie "Who killed the electric car?". The people did lease them, they were not allowed to purchase the cars at the end of their leases. Once the companies got the legistation crushed they got all the cars back and destroyed them.

As for those who debate the oil/auto connection. All you have to do is look at the cross over on the board of directors and share holders. Much of the blame for ending the electric car mandate on the west coast can be pinned on the Bush administration, who worked with the oil and auto companies to get California to change its laws.

But let's face it - the big auto companies do not want to make these things, because electric vehicles are much less profitable products than gas vehicles. This is why the cars were only leased, not sold - so that the auto companies could seize them as soon as the law changed.
