"That’s not to say that high debt can’t cause problems — it certainly can"

When even a left wing hack like klugman actually throws in a sentence that high debt can cause problems you KNOW there is a problem. If this guy and the NY times is your info source, we better stop now.

China is buying our debt, thats not paper, thats debt! We owe it back!

Klugman(and you) are the only people on the planet that think our debt is ok. Take a look at greece, we could be them in 4 years or less.

We should probably end here, as this will go political shortly. We just don't live on the same planet.:banghead:

You must always consider the source and I see that you have. I dropped out of the conversation a page ago.

Thanks for chiming in SpyderGirl...... glad you're enjoying your new Volt. I wonder if people will be so quick to judge the Hybrid Spyder once they hit the market....

---------------------

Pertaining to all the other discussions this led to, differing opinions abound and there's no changing some minds no matter how much you try or how many facts you present....it's just not worth the trouble....:banghead:

They are just (un)GREEN with envy. LOL

Or perhaps just watching with interest to see if the necessary infrastructures can be put into place so that viable alternatives can exist... :dontknow:
I don't know if excess capacity exists in the powerplants of our Country; but I'd bet against it at this time...

Alternatives?? Has anybody developed a vehicle yet that is uses electirc motors in the hubs for movement? You could have either 2 or 4; depending on what you're moving... A very small gas or diesel engine could be used SOLELY to spin enough alternators to provide the juice to those motors. You'd have cooling issues for the alternators; maybe liquid-coll them and plumb them into an oversized cooling system for the small engine that spins them...
You wouldn't need to carry as much storage capacity, so batteries wouldn't be such a burden either! :thumbup:
That's my un-informed and un-engineering opinion... and not even worth two cents! :gaah: :roflblack:

Can't wait till they come out with the hybrid spyder! I have already expressed an opinion on that--so will get out of this discussion. :roflblack:

A lots of people experimenting HHO Hydrogen generators and produce hydrogen out of water into cars and trucks and claim 200 miles mph. You tube have many entries. Check them out. Don't get mad about pricy gas do something. We can do it.
