The fact that our entire government is crazy should surprise no one. The "Greens" are now in control of several departments, including the Department of Energy. Dr. Chu, who is the head of that agency, lacks any business acumen and together with his Democrat friends reaches decisions that are disastrous for America. The fact that socialists overtook the green movement in the '60s is also common knowledge and is characterized by Germany, where an alliance between Die Bunten (the Gays), Die Gruenen (the Greens), Buentniss 90 (Association 90), the DDR communist party green branch, and the SPD Sozialistische Partei Deutschland (German Socialist Party) formed a union which has been governing Germany for some decades.

So it is fair to say that the green movement is also the socialist movement. Once this is understood many things become clear. Among these is the fact that socialism does not sell but environmentalism does. There are several sectors of the economy where the Greens have become a paramount instrument of intended change. As has been demonstrated, these are all losing propositions for the country, for science and for individual citizens.

The automotive industry has long been criticized by the Greens for CO2 (greenhouse gases) production and for environmental harm. The fact that CO2 does no harm to the environment and is in fact the gas converted by plants in the process of converting CO2 into Oxygen, called photosynthesis – a process by which chlorophyll converts light energy (protons) into electrical energy splitting water molecules, thereby producing oxygen – all seems to have escaped environmental scientists. Regardless, the fact that most environmentalists have no foundational understanding of business or science will become very clear by the time you finish this article.

The primary impetus of the Obama administration relating to the automotive industry demonstrates that people within this administration have no foundational understanding of manufacturing processes or functions, lack any and all understanding of markets and are scientific neophytes relating to the automotive industry as well as the environment. They have invested over one billion dollars starting up their principal corporations for the production of electrically powered cars. The fact that present battery technology is unable to meet the requirements and demands necessitated by buyers' expectations is not part of the Obama energy equation.
