					<description><![CDATA[This WAS an epic fail!
1.  You dont price a car at $100,000 if you expect to sell a lot of them.
2.  Sports cars have a very limited audience......resulting in another smaller group of people buying them.

Two big no nos.

And last of all............I own a sports car,  I love it, BUT Im not driving a family around, or carrying garden stuff or anything like that.  I dont fall into the large general catagory of needing a car to fit all needs.  MOST people do.

After I bought my car, I was invited to a huge car show that had all kinds of sports cars and we got to go around and grade them on various items, like: set up of the consul, colors available, upgraded performance packages, sizes of tires, etc etc etc.   One of the questions was.........would you buy an electric sports car.

The answer by everyone involved (there must have been about 500 of us) was NO.  We didnt care what gas cost as that was not an issue for most sports car drivers.  The issue was it had to be fast, and sleek. ..... Being green was not even a consideration.......]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;House lawmakers held a fractious hearing over federal loans that had been made to struggling electric-car manufacturer Fisker Automotive.Good.&quot;

So the Feds waste billions of tax dollars on risky environmental business scams and this is defended by Libtard Congress critters as justifiable? These fools are immune to reason. Remember that the next time you can&#039;t get service from a Federal bureaucrat due to sequester cuts.

&quot;It was a debacle for Silicon Valley venture capital investors who put tens of millions into Fisker:&quot;

I hope they lost their shirts trying to save the planet from a non existent threat. Serves them right.

&quot;there’s no excuse for not doing homework. It appears none was done.&quot;

This is a classic example of what happens when a public hysteria like AGW becomes pervasive. Fear based thinking replaces rational analysis and financial resources end up being misallocated. Liberty and prosperity are the real victims here, not those environmentally pretentious, ProgBot venture capitalists.]]></description>
