LOL. I guess you've never been to Europe where half the people ride bicycles or public transportation and only the well off own cars, or people in their 30's who have finally saved up enough to afford one. If you think every high school kid has a car, and every family has 2-3 cars in England or France like we do here in the US, you don't understand how the world works. You don't need a tinfoil hat to understand that current US automotive and energy policy is similar to that of Europe, and will achieve the same results.
