RE: California highways may soon produce their own power
The energy comes from the motion of the cars which comes from the fuel used to power the cars. There is nothing 'free' here. The drivers pay for the electricity in reduced mileage although it may be only a fraction of a cent per mile it is still a tax on the driver.
The public gets taxed twice with this plan. First we pay for the project then we supply the energy out of our own gas tanks and batteries. There is nothing renewable about this plan. We still have to burn coal or gasoline to get the energy in the first place.
This is one of those idiot projects that Lobbyists sell to politicians because the politicians are gullible.
Tell a politician that something is free and they will always agree to pay an exorbitant shipping and handling charge.
