Tell me why this tiny nation needs a STRETCH LIMO HUMMER to cruise down Laugavegur?!

We've got hydrogen busses in San Jose, but they're fucking expensive as hell. It's something like $50 a mile. I mentioned the idea of simply using solar panels to create electricity that would extract hydrogen and oxygen from water instead of purchasing hydrogen from some really expensive vendors, but I was basically ignored. So instead of an initial cost of solar power and a tiny cost for tap water, we are paying $50 a mile on a program that will likely be cited in the future as a "failure of hydrogen in public transportation". Fucking morons.
