WORTH CONSUMING!

Probably the most depressing documentary I’ve seen in a while. Who Killed the Electric Car?” makes me really glad that I don’t live in California and don’t own a car.

Just saw this movie (ok well behind my friends, but I am busy!). My friend Richard Titus helped get this made and I am very glad he put his own money into this. The story of American auto/petroleum industry killing innovations that threaten it is long. The GM EV1 is just one more chapter. You get some of the history and verse in the movie as well which is very helpful. Near the end you get a glimpse of the future. Tesla motors and other INDEPENDENT companies that will make these cars a reality. GM can’t make a profit on a car that sells less than 300,000 copies. Just like Hollywood has trouble making money on small movies. Remember, GM has three retired employees for every one currently working. GM is basically an pension plan that makes cars and car loans. The innovations will come from the start-ups who don’t have that legacy costs. Go buy a Tesla. I am.
