<p>For a group of people that claim to hate rich people so much, they sure do a lot for them.</p>
<p>As has been declared by our royal rulers, the Democrats, we shall eat cake! If &quot;we&quot; are wealthy businessmen who happen to be in the <a href="http://detnews.com/article/20100930/MIVIEW/9300432/No-joke--Biden-reveals-The-Great-Stealth-Stimulus-Scheme">&quot;green&quot; technology business</a>, that is:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Burning tax dollars like monopoly money, Governor Granholm and President Obama have &quot;invested&quot; millions in A123, a Michigan battery company even as industry experts say that electric vehicles are not the future of transportation that politicians claim.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Yes, a technology that Americans have continually rejected is what the government is forcing us to pay for through tax subsidies. We have had two such &quot;green&quot; plants announced in Michigan within the past few months, one in Holland one and in Livonia. Isn't it nice to know that inefficient, unwanted technology will be made right here in are own backyard? After all, if a cars and parts being built were successful, like the Jeep Cherokee or the Ford F150, then they wouldn't need government subsidies, would they?</p>
<p>Where are they getting this money as the U.S. continues it's plunge into second-rate status? The &quot;stimulus&quot;, of course. And Joe Biden is really, really excited about blowing through the money of future taxpayers:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>[A]bout one-sixth of the total cost [of the stimulus] is an all-out effort to exploit the crisis to make green energy, green building and green transportation real; launch green manufacturing industries; computerize a pen-and-paper health system; promote data-driven school reforms; and ramp up the research of the future. 'This is a chance to do something big, man!' Biden said during a 90-minute interview with TIME.&quot;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Green technology is expensive and ineffective. Only the wealthy can afford the ugly subcompact cars that Obama and his buddies love. The Volt, which isn't nearly as ugly as the Prius, will cost over $40,000, and it goes about 15 feet before needing to be recharged, so it's the adult equivalent of the Barbie Jeeps you see zooming down the suburbs at 5 MPH. The fact that any grown-up would actually drive one amazes me.</p>
<p>But that's America. You get a choice of which vehicle you want to drive&hellip; as long as you choose the right one.</p>
