    Get it? Burn twice the fuel, save the planet.

    You just proved my point.

    EVERYTHING IS ABOUT MONEY .

    You probably believe in "free" education and "free" healthcare. All of us individuals just serve you because we care about you....
    Dude, emission standards are designed to INCREASE your mpg! You are contradicting yourself. You are saying global warming is BS, it's about money, to increase Al Gore's holdings, which are all renewables, but now you're saying that emissions standards (which you are getting backwards) actually increase money to the oil companies. So by your first logic, global warming is about helping renewables business and hurting oil, and by your second argument you are saying it's helping big oil.

    "Free" k-12? Yes. Free healthcare? Only for accident coverage. I don't know why I'm debating someone who is debating himself, but no I come from a high tax region and am in a high tax bracket. Not only does the economy I live in and work in carry the dumbass red states economically, we pay an unfair share of taxes too. But nice try.

    We are done. Every single emissions standard decreases fuel economy. Who is that good for?

    Engine manufacturers have had to reduce valve to cylinder clearance to such extreme levels that all the newer engines are interference engines. Break your timing belt or chain and you get a new engine. They only did this because they were trying to squeeze all the horsepower they could out of an engine choking on its own exhaust. Catalytic converter, egr, scr, reburner, any emissions reduces fuel mileage causing you to get less fuel economy.

    Those red states that you carry, they are the agriculture states, the ones that actually perform the greatest part of the largest industry in the world. Oh fuck I will die without these cities!

    No....
    Wait...

    Thats backwards huh?
    Thank you for your miniscule employment taxes.
    I have many friends with over 20 million in farm equipment. This isn't the 1950's, we arent dumbasses pushing plows.

    You have accused people here of acting superior but this last post shows how you really feel about yourself. You are a douchebag. Go somewhere else.

    Really? Want me to quote you statistics about every red state's favorite enemy, California, and the size of it's agrictulture. By FARRR the biggest Ag producer in the country.

    20 million?!? OOooohhh. Not 20 MILLION! I worked for a company that does $4B in ag revenue in liberal old california. Who gives a shit?!? You brought up the whole taxes and free this and that. I just corrected you. Red states get bailed out by blue states. Have fun on your laptop or cellphone, hitting the internet, tweeting your ass off or facebooking away, and thank california for all of that. Thank a blue state for your medicines, technology, engineered products and reason for our country being the economic power it is. And thank a blue state for subsidizing you. We pay for your state's pork spending. You're welcome son.
