Electric cars will happen with improved 100% PVC that can continuously charge EV batteries. Wasting billion on hydrogen fuel cell driven by special interest that will add billions to their fortunes, on the other hand nanoantennas solar is receiving nothing. Before you fix the economy you need to fix government corruption. Diesel is the most fuel-efficient car. Electric cars will happen with improved 100% PVC that can continuously charge EV batteries.

What Tesla is doing is great, but as you say, if we achieve nothing more than a few more of them zipping around, then I fear we have achieved too little. Working around the edges is fine to prove technologies, but more than just technology is required. Technology coupled with a fundamental shift in thinking and an entire rebuilding of the energy infrastructure is, in my opinion, what is needed. So is government funding of Tesla a step in the right direction? That remains to be seen, if it is thought that the funding in and of itself and getting a few more of them on the road is all that needs doing, then it may be a false step.
