(28,498 posts)But considering the opposition to electric cars by corporatists and their minions in Congress for the past several decades, it might have been determined better to begin manufacturing in a foreign land. At least Gore didn't close down a factory in the US already making electric cars and transfer the jobs to China.

On edit: Here is this comment from your article:
This story is very misleading. Fisker Automotive has created hundreds of design and engineering jobs at their southern California headquarters and the vast majority of their funding (more than $1B) has come from private equity financing. What's lost in this politically motivated sensationalism is the fact that Fisker is doing something Americans should be proud of by leading the auto industry in a new direction with a bold and innovative idea.
Perhaps ABC might "investigate" this part of the story.
