Break up big oil and break up the banks introduce new regulatory legislation and beef up the agencies that provide the oversight.
What is so difficult about that?

Renewable resources, however, are all nice and dandy, but are not in any shape to form the backbone of our power system. It's amazing how much nuclear power would be the ideal solution to this, yet so many people think that this technology in the US is like Chernobyl.
I think what amazes me most is how much bad information seems to run so much of the public opinion and big government decisions, especially when the good information is so available, it's just not being rammed down the public's throat like the bad information is.

I would TOTALLY sell my family members to purchase this trike if/when it becomes available. The social stigma in the USA against scooters or trikes is so confounding and really does nothing to move the social consciousness towards more efficient and environmentally sound forms of transportation.

As for the social stigma, I think there's a reason for that; the USA practically invented motorcycle culture, and it's taken solid root here. And that culture is heavily tied to "freedom" and being able to take the same vehicle that you use to get to work and go on a 3000 mile search for yourself. And you just can't do that on a scooter.
Speaking of which, anyone else watching Sons of Anarchy? Fantastic show.

Some people ride to get from point A to point B
Some people ride to get away from point A
Scooters almost always fall in the former category.

The current ICE-only 500 looks better than the 400, which this hybrid appears to be based on, but they both look fine in person. As an avowed two-wheeler, I'd consider a plug-in version of this as a commuter... it would let me ride in the snow, which is currently the only thing that makes me park my bike.

Also, they look pretty good in real life. So quit being a jerk.
