Volkswagen is a cheater..

Well…in this age of computer run cars, I guess this had to happen….the other day, it was discovered that Volkswagen used the computer software that runs their engines to cheat the EPA tests in their diesel cars sold in the US. The software was so sophisticated that it could tell when the engine was being tested and put in the pollution control protocol when, all the rest of the time, the engine would run basically without pollution controls, spewing from 10 to 40 TIMES the pollution that it was certified for. It was also revealed that there are almost a million cars with this software that are polluting our air…and the funny thing is the CEO of the company doesn’t know anything about it…okay, that was sarcasm…I just wonder why they would want to do this..better mileage? Okay, I am having a hard time working up outrage when this crap happens all the time…corporations are not people…but who are the people behind this? Nope…no outrage…damn…I wonder if my outrage meter is broken?  Geez…
