"If the federal government can provide a whopping $150 billion lifeline to a single insurance company — American International Group — then surely the federal government can save and create millions of American jobs by loaning and investing a fraction of that amount to an industry that will lead us to energy independence. Supporting the automotive industry through the current crisis and steering a clear transition to a low-carbon future will create millions of middle-class jobs that are vital to a strong economy while reinvigorating American technological superiority."
