300 More Million Down The Drain

Yessir, 300 million in the stimulus package for "green" golfcarts.

That would battery-operated carts... instead of gasoline-operated carts.

Don't those idiots understand that for every speck of energy saved saved by using batteries means that a power plant somewhere has to generate that much more energy to charge the damned batteries?

Now tell me that a coal-fired electrical plant is the place to find green golfcarts.

Reminds when Apple claimed they had gone green with their computers by no longer manufacturing printed circuit cards, etc. How'd they do it? They contracted somebody else, somebody else to make the cards, somebody that created the same amount of toxic waste to do the job. All Apple did was pass the pollution off on to someone else and then brag about going "green". What crap.

300 Million to put batteries(like the one in your car) and an electric motor(like the one in your refrigerator) in golfcarts?

We are being so screwed by this Congress and this administration.
