Spherical Hang Glider

Someone explain to me why we Americans cannot become energy self-sufficient. (I'll pause for the grumbling nay saying slanderers.) Are you still there? O. K. I was thinking about modes of transportation in particular the automobile. How much do we spend on road improvements? I'm pretty sure we spent between $500 million to $1 cool billion last year (www.cfte.org). What percent of our police force is spent regulating traffic? I don't know this answer. If you do, please try to contact me and let me know. What a waste of time it is driving a car. What about gps and camera recognition? What is the yearly death rate of autos??? I think it is the #1 cause of death. So fuck off, you abortion activist martyrs. I'm pissed. It's the automobile, stupid. Why can't we for once get together as a nation and stand up to big automobile? I want some kid to design some crazy idea of getting from here to there with replacing the automobile in mind. I'm working on a spherical hang glider that bounces and glides. Consider the space elevator theory.
