Just so you aren't confused, hybrids still require fuel, just a lot less.
There is no need to plug them in.
If hydrogen was used, all the gas stations would go out of business.
And new (hydrogen) gas stations would open. There is your jobs.....
okay, I wasn't being absolutely clear(that's a problem with me)
1 All electric definately suck, thus the out of jobs, and plug it in
2 hybirds aren't that bad, just wayyy to expensive now, Lexus has an EX that is a hybird, and also out performs the all gas model, and I like it
3 hydrogen would be great but as some others pointed out, the companies that made prototypes don't anymore(or that's what I got out of it)
4 what do you use to heat your home, last I checked there were only a few options, unless you have a couple of windmills for electric on you property, you are using one of the bad types that won't let you open you window.
5 and why if electric is so great and a renewable source are the fuckkin cocksuckers blocking the wind farm off the coast of mass, I mean that's what the libs in mass want, no more bad sources of energy
like i said before I sound like a nut but thats the way i see things
Just cause I'm paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get me.
We are (were?) a real republic the only one sinse the pre Caesar days in Rome. The fact that every uneducated dictator calls there petty fifedom a republic does not change the meaning.
Re Publica from the people.
The power to govern is the peoples on loan to the government representatives by agreement of the people. The sorry fact that this sounds absurd at this time is what we really should be apologising to our kids about.
I try not to waste and squander I hold these old Yankee virtues dear. I would even encourage the government to make an agressive promotopnal and education campaign against waste and polution.
The government is a giant wet blanket and everyone should be concerned about the unintended consequences of ceding them power they should not have.
Once again I am paranoid that the beurocrats that run these agencies have a person agenda. I firmly believe that the ones in "nature and the environment " have an unreasonable view not reflecting the desires of the citizens.
If at least one of you questions the intentions and unintended results of the latest Government policy then perhaps just perhaps there is the tiniest glimmer of the light of Liberty.

The problem is that the masses are asses. If we didn't have regulations, our country would fold. People are too stupid to regulate themselves.

Wouldn't that define a 'representative gov't'? Not necessarily a 'republic' nor a 'democracy'?Originally posted by RandyO

I remember in high school learning that we are a "federalist" type of government which is different than a "republic" - which is true, except that a federalist government is a type of republic.

I aint argueing....
THIS time
I don't think you remember your learning correctly , sure there was a Federalist Party that promoted more centralized federal government power, but remember the tenth amendment. Our constitution only gives very limited power to the federal government.Originally posted by highsider

We are a "democratic republic by definition because the people elect representatives. As you know, the original 2 parties ,Federalist and Whig, lost favor to the 3rd party,Thomas Jefferson's Democratic Republicans which had since split into the 2 current majority parties The only Federalist president we ever had was John Adams... but I think modern day Democrats should call themselves what they are.... Federalists, and Republicans should call themselves what they are.... Whigs. Libertarian platforms are closest to the original Democratic Republicans.

And we are NOT a 'democracy'. We have a 'representative' form of gov't. The 'people' don't have a direct say. The elected 'representatives' have a say, which many times is based solely on PERSONAL beliefs rather than those of his constituants. Say what you want. This is not a 'democracy' we live in. Not even close...

don't confuse democracy and democratic..... we are a democratic republic cause the people elect the represenatives... if they were appointed by a king, we would still be a republic, just not a democratic one.Originally posted by Stoneman
