If they relocate them far enough away from habitable areas, there will not be a worker base to operate the plants. Things like pollution control improvements and green technology should be absolutely and positively tax-free, with 100% industry tax credits. Includes renewable energy batteries, equipment including solar panels. Zero manufacturing taxes, zero sales tax. By constitutional amendment.
The USA has one hell of a hypocritical government. Government for the governors, not for the people or the planet.
To government, GREEN MEANS MONEY not the environment.
A 200 mph series of bullet-trains linking Bellingham Washington to San Diego, with associated ancillary regional hub distribution would cut down fuel consumption 50%. Can you image a 200 mph cargo train hauling 2,000 tons of packages?
RAMCAR spent over a million dollars on pollution control in the eighties.
But it is not nice to know that most of our largest recyclers and hazardous waste disposal system is heavily infiltrated by organized crime. To charge fifty dollars for a pickup bed of crushed cardboard boxes is criminal.
I am SO GLAD to be out of the reach of micro-managing government agencies I can get down on my knees and say thank you.
Like MediCare. The doctors are pricing constrained. So they schedule a series of three or four appointments to make adjustments. And the US public has no got a clue.
But I am henceforth free of the Johnson Controls / Exide / US Battery quagmire. Trojan prices have never been "low" and a hundred and ninety dollars for a group 27 cyclable battery raises my eyebrowns all the way to my bald spot.
I get to tour the Tijuana battery plant and spy out grids, plate thickness specs, greening, paste composition, assembly techniques, and other very private secrets. Same with RAMCAR in Commerce. I'd better plan on an extended stay.
My Rolls bank is getting l-o-n-g in the tooth. It would be nice to have a backup plan. With a 240 ampere charger, and a 110 amp charger, plus a 385 amp motor driven (Lombordini), I can make do with most everything. It is nice to have enough battery to operate a 600-watt AC for four days, plus lights, fan, PC computer, etc. Then hammer the batteries for eight-hours with 500+ amperes.
