As I write this, we are facing some of the most daunting challenges in our nation's history. We are losing thousands of jobs every week. Entire factories are closing and being shipped overseas. Out-sourcing is diluting our skilled labor pool. We also face fighting an unpopular war, soaring deficits and government spending gone wild.
Two hundred fifty years ago, 90% of the US population was self-employed; the remaining 10% worked for an employer. Now those numbers have almost exactly reversed.
My point is this: we cannot spend our way out of this mess, and we cannot all provide services to each other. WE NEED TO START BUILDING THINGS AGAIN.
Many around the world would say that America has lost it way. I don't believe a word of it. And I never will. The fact is, even with things the way they are now, we have the largest economy in the world- $14 TRILLION dollars worth!
But we can do much, much better. We still have the hardest working, most skilled, most productive labor force in the world- and I am a firm believer that we need to start making things HERE again. No more sending an entire factory overseas so we can save $.05 cents on an item. IT IS JUST NOT WORTH IT!
When I founded this company, I vowed to always make my product on American shores with American labor with parts made in America. And I intend to make good on my promises. I had many offers from foreign governments and individuals to locate overseas- needless to say, I turned them all down. I know in my heart that I made the right decision.
Won't you join us here at Team BE? We are starting a grass roots effort to lobby Congress to promote "green" pro-manufacturing legislation and stop unfair trade laws. We hope to recruit 50,000 members by the end of 2010 to help us enact tax credits and incentives for green manufacturing and and electric vehicle ownership.The momentum, support, and social consciousness for electric vehicles has never been higher- it is CRUCIAL that we not let this moment slip away.We need to act NOW to ensure our nations future and rightful place in the forefront of electric vehicle technology and manufacturing. Last year, Congress enacted a $7500 tax credit for electric vehicle ownership. We would like to see the credit raised to $15,000 to offset the currently high initial cost of purchasing an EV. Remember, the oil companies have had their way for over 100 years. They are about to lose a good share of their livelihood and profits and they are not going to give them up without a fight. Big oil has dictated the type of cars we drive for long enough. The time is NOW for we the people to decide and choose the kind of clean and green cars we will be driving in the future. At last count, nine nations have stated their intentions to make EV technology and manufacturing a top priority in this decade.We the people of this great nation MUST do the same or fall hopelessly behind. Your one-time contribution of $15 gets you a lifetime membership to Team BE and includes our official t-shirt, access to exclusive information, videos, and special offers. AND... you will receive two FREE raffle tickets for the drawing to be held July 4, 2011 where we will GIVE AWAY production number 0002 of the Speed EV-9 roadster, NINE Samsung 40" LCD HD TVs, and FORTY 5" 8GB MP5 players. Heck, the shirt alone is worth $15...and you may just walk away with a $125,000 car! Thank-you for your time.
Sincerely,
Bruce E. Bastian President and Founder
