And they get a country where people have good jobs, are happy, cleaner air, reduce desire to secure oil in the ME, ensures a strong Euro, and the average German is able to spend money in the local economy to help the rich make more profits...
It's just like GM wanting a federal $1/gallon gas tax so customer demand will help them meet their CAFE standards profitably. Or GM is worried that if gas goes down to $2 due to OPEC manipulating the spigot, then the demand for hybrids and fuel efficient cars can still be profitable or subsidized because it is in the best interest of the country.
