Right now, there are large technical obstacles and the economics just aren't there. <br /><br />That may change some day, but right now people who buy a fuel cell car are having their neighbors pay for half to 2/3 of it. We can have the debate if it's right for the government to take our tax money and subsidize that much of the cost of every fuel cell car to - possibly - lower the cost of fuel cells, but we <i>haven't had</i> that debate. They just do it. <br /><br />SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-70236558502948193082016-05-04T02:53:05.670-04:002016-05-04T02:53:05.670-04:00You are being so negative!

It will most likely always cost more in actual energy expended to manufacture and drive and recycle them BUT with enough razzle dazzle and federal state and other subsidies I think...... Hmmmmmm. Nope. It still won't be practical but our government and MSM will try to convince us it is. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
