Joe's Defends lowest Mileage standards in the world

Joe just doesn't get it. His defense of current CAFE standards in the January 20 Oakland Press proves that Joe needs to go. http://tinyurl.com/28yyem. Joe thinks that raising CAFE standards will bankrupt the Big 3. Had the Big 3 moved on their own to increase mileage on their vehicles and competed on fuel efficiency through the late 90's they wouldn't be in the position they find themselves today. Our fuel efficiency standards are lower than in China.
