Let the free market work. This means more economical cars will sell better when fuel prices go up. It also mean that people have every right to buy WHAT THEY WANT with their own money. If they WANT an SUV, they have just as much right to get it with their own money as someone who WANTS a Prius. If people wanted SUVs, they get to live with the consequences, but we are adults and should be allowed to make our own free market decisions. As for the car companies, they don't make much profit on small cars, so of course they encouraged the purchase of high profit light trucks? Complaining about businesses trying to make a profit is like complaining that sharks are mean for eating fish. It is just what they do. American automakers will adjust to market realities when they ARE market realities, politicians should not make their business decisions for them.
