[QUOTE="BC119, post: 1540394, member: 24359"] I think we need some ruthless back office guys to audit the hell out of every dime the government spends. Focus on productivity and show value with every $ of tax money spent and stop providing insane unsupervised handouts to major corporations that don't care about the American public past what they can sell to them. I'm not big on politics, but I feel like with a ton of fat trimming, we can bring bridges, roads, crumbling commercial and residential infrastructure all up to speed. To your China and India point, I did a bit of undergrad research in combustion, and it was often pointed out that we as a country cannot possibly outweigh the negative impact that major polluters have on the world, so why bother. I always tout our innovative nature, and if we find a way take a chunk out of the transportation pollution with new technology, China will most likely follow suit. (Not great innovators, but world class when it comes to IP theft). Edit: Also want to add that no one should think they are holier than thou by driving a Prius or Hybrid EV. It takes global cooperation to effect meaningful change, not you doing 60 in the left lane in your 06 prius. I just want a Raptor that has a McLaren P1esque powertrain, or one with like 700 instant ft*lbs of torque [/QUOTE]
