Just a fun fact for those of you buying the scam about hybrids:
We have a 15 year old car that gets 45 miles to a gallon. A Honda Civic.
I recall back in the 70's and 80's that some cars would get 54 on the highway. Now tell me, is 45 mpg in a Prius really GREEN?!
No. It's not. It's a bunch of bullshit.
The technology DOES exist for regular cars to get much better gas mileage than what they are selling us today.
Price of fuel is up in England to about $11 per gallon according to the NPR report I heard today. Of course, they aren't all driving around in SUV's either...

for my next rant, ethanol! More fucking bullshit!
