Who crushed Alex's Car?

Alexandra Paul is an actress widely known in the show "Baywatch." She has been driving electric cars for 18 years and is a founding member of Plug in America also appearing in the documentary "Who Killed the Electric Car?" She states that electric cars have been developed since the 1900's. They were nice clean and simple. It was not until a few years after where Texas crude oil was discovered along with an electric starter to introduce combustion motors at a lower price in contrast to electric motors. This movement put the demand in the direction of combustion motors suppressing electric. An energy crisis in the 60's and 70's brought up new electric models developed by General Motors also creating a new point of view with California. California has such a large market it decided to have all manufactures to make 2% of their production electric if they have the capabilities. This action was soon overlooked by all the tycoons in the automobile and oil industry. The documentary "Who Killed the Electric Car?" informed the public of how the economy is not ready for a green change. America has the capabilities to create electric cars that can reach 0-60 in 7.4 seconds with top speeds of 140 mph for a length of 100 miles. 100 miles might not seem much, but the average American commutes only 34 miles which are plenty. The car seems to be the best option made available as I can see it. A person can plug their car up at night on off peak hours when the grid is not so hot, and wake up to get 100 miles at a charge for around the equivalence of 60 cents per gallon. It is interesting that the government seems concerned with the whole green theory now when it has been available for 18 years. This doesn't sound like a representative democracy, more less a direct democracy of tycoons that will get every cent out of oil before any other type of primary energy source will be used.
