NHTSA scumbag after high powered cars
In "Muscle Car" magazine, they report that the NHTSA
is on the warpath against high horsepower. NHTSA chief Jeffrey Runge, says he wants them to "go after the high horsepower cars like Chrysler Hemis and 400hp Cadillacs." Ah yes, despite having zero evidence that a car with high horsepower causes more accidents or death than a runty little compact death trap with 140hp, they just HAVE to throw the ravenious insurance industry this bone. It's going to be just like the early 1970s when fuel and insurance costs killed the muscle car outright. I wonder if Americans are going to sit back and let themselves be raped by the insurance agencies when this "initiative" gets going? -Rich |

Witness the apparently seamless move now in congress to make the ANTI-Patriot Act's "temporary provisions" permanent. |
