So why are GM cars only getting bigger - consuming more fuel - not doing anything to address the problem? Clinton even gave them a boatload of money in the mid 1990s to develop solutions. Instead, patriotic American companies (companies that innovate) now dominate such markets.

Put $35 of gas in a tank. How many actually move the car? $4. What do the other $31 do? Contribute to global warming. Somehow that company, when not required by regulations, simply stops addressing the problem - stops innovating. (As a result it constantly looses market share to other innovative - patriotic American - companies.)

So where is this free market that is innovating? Ironically only where government regulations are encouraged and implemented in venues where honesty exists and global warming really is a man made problem. Where people believe in facts. And ignore preaching by religious extremists and communist - ie Senator Inhofe.

What is this?

At a supposition, it's a statement that history ended in 1972. A moment before the gas crisis.

The remainder of the post, while very backward-looking, is not as objectionable.
