Pop Quiz -- Why don't most people buy hybrids.

The upfront cost.

Takes too long to get the gas savings to equal out with higher purchase price.

Not to mention that the majority of people are skeptical of the "new" technology. They have not been aroung long enough to "comfort" many consumers into buying them.
They may be worth it or may not... Onlt time will tell.

So yes MM please have congress take over the Big 3 and force them to build cars that many Americans cannot afford nor want. That'll save the American Auto Industry. Oh yeah in the meantime let the competitors know in advance so they can use their government subsidies (from their respective country) to build regular gas burning autos for Americans to buy.
