R.I.P. General Motors...

The sound your heard late Tuesday evening was the last nail being hammered into the coffin of General Motors. Not only will they eliminate 25,000 jobs, but also continue to ignore the future of hybrid auto technology.

In the July 13, 2005 Wall Street Journal the head of Toyota stated their goal to focus on hybrid autos as "...a core technology." Toyota is investing 7 billion dollars this year into research and development (without going into debt).

Even the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is investing in hybrid technology as the military consumes as much gas as bullets these days. In the meantime, General Motors ignores the future of hybrid technology and is satisfied following the market, instead of leading it.
