There are cars that people want to buy. I bought one last October. Between the gas prices and the car payments and insurance, it's tough.

I like the idea of a Volt, with its own onboard generator so you are not range limited. I would not buy one, though. Between the cost of the car and the specially configured battery packs and the effect of road salt on undercar electrical components, I don't hold out much hope for resale value or long term economy.

Anyone, individual, corporation, or government, who tries to impose their choices on the general public should meet with great resistance and loud outcry. Suggest, state a good case, prove the benefits...but do not try to blackmail us! Let us live with our choices, good or bad. Freedom of choice is one of the things we still have.
