Toyota is quietly pushing Congress to slow the shift to electric vehicles

I remember Amazon stock ran higher for a week after Bezos was on 60 Minutes in 2012 talking about Amazon delivery drones.

Dreams are often difficult to execute:


'Amazon ditches drone delivery plans despite years of planning'

Whatever Whiz-Bang technology Musk or anybody else claims, still requires money (a lot of it) to get implemented. Where's the money coming from?

Everybody is broke.

Local, states and Federal. Just think of the stuff-hitting-the-fan moment when the first state admits that they can't pay $100K+ pensions to blue collar retirees. These pension fund managers are getting 1.18% right now on 10 year treasuries. Which means they are heavily invested in aggressive speculations, just to make their projections look OK. There are land mines all over the place, huge ones.

This is all insane.

There will be no driver-less cars.

The scam started with unions bullying states to pay $100K+ pensions to blue collar retirees in order to keep the peace. Inflated pay packages, inflated benefits, inflated pensions. The house of cards will fall on them first.
