Why is it, in a time when crude oil is selling at more than $50 a barrel, our government is encouraging the purchase of gas guzzling SUVs, Hummers, etc., with tax incentives, capital-equipment deductions and minimum tax breaks of $25,000, while the measly (in comparison) $2,000 tax incentive for hybrids is going away next year?
Bad tax breaks are a fiscal waste and send the wrong message. Correcting the current loophole and investing instead in bringing more advanced, economical and environmentally friendly vehicles to market would be far wiser.
