Quote:And, the jury is still out on GM's fate. In fact, with the new CAFE standards, and looming Cap In Trade Programs, I'm not sure many companies in the energy chain (related to Oil, Coal, or NG) will survive without government takeovers.
Just pass along the costs to the consumer. If the society is addicted to fossil fuels (and it is), then just crank up the prices. People will use less, but a market-clearing price will still exist. Poor people might be priced out of the market, but rebates and progressive taxation can compensate. Energy consumption goes down, efficiency goes up, greenhouse gases go down... sounds like a win to me.

-Jester

Afterthought: Why would you rescue a dying company, only to kill it? Is GM's 'dignity' really worth billions of dollars? To anyone?
