Obama wrong about fuel efficiency standards.

Obama says : "This country didn't raise fuel efficiency standards for over 30 years." The result, the Illinois senator said, is that consumers are suffering.

Well, I think the market takes care of itself. PA (Politics Avalanche) believes that there is no need for such harsh measures. Who stuck with gas guzzling SUV's? The names that come to mind are GM, Ford, Chrysler. Who came out with smaller, more efficient cars? The Japs did that.


The primary proof that free market works to regulate itself is evident by the good fortunes of the Japs lately and the mad scrambling by which the Big Three are going for smaller cars.

So Obama, the system works just fine, what you have seen in Detroit is Capitalism regulating the industry. No one who even walks by a gas station would argue that the companies are going to ignore the case for more fuel efficient vehicles. If they do, it will be at their own peril.

DO NOT BRING THE GOVERNMENT TO DO WHAT WE CAN DO OURSELVES IN A BETTER WAY!
