Poll finds Americans want 60 mpg fuel efficiency

May 30th, 2011 No comments

As gas prices across the United States hover near $4 a gallon, a new survey finds a majority of Americans support requiring automakers to meet a 60-mile-per-gallon standard by 2025.

The findings come as the Obama administration is expected to propose new fuel-efficiency regulations in September. Environmental groups say a 60-mpg standard would save U.S. drivers $101 billion per year. In 2009, the administration set the standard for light cars and trucks to 35.5 mpg by 2016.

The nationwide survey of 2,000 adults was released Monday and commissioned by the Consumer Federation of America (CFA), a left-leaning nonprofit. It found that 75 percent of Americans say improving fuel economy standards is important. Sixty-two percent supported federal regulation requiring automakers to meet 60 m.p.g. standards by 2025.

A majority of people across the political spectrum supported such a measure, especially if fuel savings would negate the extra cost of a fuel-efficient cars within five years of purchase. Sixty-two percent of Republicans were in favor of a 60 mpg standard, and 71 percent of Democrats supported the measure. Independents were the least supportive, with 56 percent favoring the measure.

Economic, not environmental, concerns seem to be driving attitudes about improved fuel economy, with gas prices averaging $3.81 per gallon in May, according to AAA.

“Gas prices are the main driver of smaller-vehicle or more fuel-efficient vehicle purchases,” says Camyrn Craig, a research analyst at Kelley Blue Book, which tracks car sales. Her company found that gas mileage was a consideration for 84 percent of car buyers in April.

Kelley Blue Book research shows that when gas prices are between $3.07 and $3.41 per gallon, the majority of consumers do not rank gas mileage as a key consideration when purchasing a car.

“At $4, 70 percent said it would be a consideration,” says Craig. “At $5, 92 percent said it would be a consideration.”

A study by Consumer Reports magazine released in February found the financial savings for buying a hybrid to be mixed.

The Toyota Prius fared best, with its $5,000 higher price tag easily outstripped by fuel savings in the first five years. Other cars made up the extra cost, but only if gas prices are moderately high. For the Ford Escape hybrid to make up its higher cost in five years, gas would need to be at least $3.60 a gallon. Still others don’t fare well at all. The hybrid version of the Lexus RX would require a gas price of at least $8.77 a gallon.

For those concerned with pollution, fuel-efficient cars are a good bet, say environmentalists, as long as you aren’t ditching a reliable vehicle to buy one.

FHA Backing for Manhattan Luxury Condos

Manhattan Luxury Condos Try FHA Backing in `Game Changer’

 

Link

 

 

Whitney Gollinger, marketing chief for a Manhattan condo building with an outdoor movie theater and panoramic city views, is highlighting a different amenity to spur sales: the financial backing of the federal government.

The Federal Housing Administration agreed in March to insure mortgages for apartments at the 98-unit Gramercy Park development, known as Tempo. That enables buyers to make a down payment of as little as 3.5 percent in a building where apartments are listed at $820,000 to $3 million.

“It’s a government seal of approval,” said Gollinger, a director at the Developments Group of New York-based brokerage Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate. “We need as many sales tools as we can have these days, and it’s one more tool.”

The FHA, created in 1934 to make homeownership attainable for low- to moderate-income Americans, is now providing a lifeline to new Manhattan luxury condominiums after sales stalled. Buildings featuring pet spas, concierges and rooftop lounges are applying for agency backing to unlock bank financing for purchasers. The FHA guarantees that if a homebuyer defaults on his mortgage, the agency will pay it.

Should the rest of us pay for public employee benefits gained by intimidation?

February 17th, 2011 No comments

When times were good and every public employee wanted to retire after 20 years on the job and receive benefits that would grow at 8%/year for the next 40 years, no one did the simple math.  It was just easier to give in to threats and intimidation by unions who used monopoly tactics identical to those outlawed over 100 years ago for companies that wanted total control of a specific market. The simple math is that this means your labor costs will double approximately every 10 years and you will soon have more people retired and not doing the job than those actually working on the job. Now when the federal government says it will help some of those states with the financial problems caused by these practices, the rest of us are expected to pay to bail out those who were irresponsible. Subsidizing irresponsible states, irresponsible organizations and irresponsible individuals is economically absurd and one of the root causes of the American Revolution where those without power were expected to provide a titled English aristocracy with a lifetime of leisure. And to think there are some who imagine that one of the root causes for the American Revolution is actually constitutional because humans have changed behavior in the last 200 years. Human behavior has remained identical throughout both recorded history and even extends in primate behavior, so why would we imagine it could change in a brief 200 years?

 

So now are left with public employees who no longer have to pass the rigorous civil service exams created by the 1872 Civil Service Law, with more retired than working, with workers who have a total sense of entitlement and with many who are hopelessly incompetent when compared to those in industry, but reportedly paid almost twice as much in wages and benefits.

 

And to think we actually have some who believe this is financially sustainable?  Retire at 40 with $50,000/yr. At 50 the pay becomes a $100,000/yr. At 60 it again doubles and at 70 it doubles again, even as the drudges still working are getting $50,000/yr those at the highest level on retirement pay are getting eight times more. It is called a geometric progression and we should have had more who realized how absurd these promised benefits actually were and what a threat they were to the economic well being of the country.
