Charlie Says: Monopoly On All Those Electric Filling Stations

Posted on April 26, 2011 | Leave a comment »

I've been wondering, why is it that the "greenies" who are so bent on us driving some electric motored means of conveyance in order to save the earth are ignoring the fact that in order to make electricity plants either burn coal or, God forbid, split the atom? I'm sure those who have the best interest of mother earth have already figured out a way to dispose of all the used up batteries from those electric jalopies in an environmentally friendly way so I won't even mention that. But, Mr. Messiah, I am curious as to why the head guy at GE, the company that seems to have a monopoly on all those electric filling stations, is also your energy advisor. Just a coincidence I'm sure. After all as you, and your media, have told us time and again you do know what's best for America so why should a bunch of old car people question it?

  • Charlie says: I just heard recently that due to the fact that obama motors seems to be having trouble selling the Chevroltet Volt electric car, of which there is a production run of 100,000 planned, while sales have been in the double digits, our all seeing, all knowing leader has come up with another "plan". GE (B.T.W. the CEO of GE is an "energy advisor" to the messiah, and the company holds, dare I call it a monopoly on the charging stations for electric cars) plans to buy up the unsold Volts at a deep discount, and a big loss to the U.S. taxpayer. Sounds like another great plan to save both the earth and the auto industry. Of course I can't leave you without mentioning the "bargain" that the messiah brokered for the U.S. tax payers to, as he puts it "get out of the auto industry" by selling off America's shares in Chrysler (see Fiat) to said foreign company at a mere loss of 1.3 billion U.S. Tax dollars. But as my liberal friends are so fond of saying "We have to give him a chance".

  • If they know whats good for America, how come GE dosn't pay taxes? I have a really bad feeling about the direction we are headed. Hope I'm wrong.
