In Honor of trump Rolling Back Fuel Economy Standards

Last Night I Watched 'Who Killed The Electric Car?'
Even though the movie is about twenty years old,
I would recommend seeing it again for anyone thinking
we live in the land of the free.
No. You Can't Have That!

Before you jump on me about the Chevy Bolt being all electric, I know. Both my sisters bought them!
I wonder if history will be repeating itself? Watch The Movie.

Somebody didn't want him to sell what he made.

Might give DeLorean Motors some thought too.

Some very interesting remarks in the Comments section, from people whose cities did not go down this particular avenue to exploitation ... My own parents have told me about how they used to take electric streetcars everywhere in downtown Birmingham AL ... I remembered them as scary because of the noise and sparks they made as they switched lines at intersections.
