Apparently any mention of taxes creates an emotional response that overshadows necessary discussion on the root cause of the Akerson comment, that being the perpetual lack of any US energy policy or CAFE, which is a failed attempt to drive the manugacturers to invent the solution for the lack of such a policy.

I don't like the comment any more than you guys. As usual I just tried to provide some rationale on why it was made.

Tapping out on this one. Too emotional.
