I do see this as a decent pork barrel setup from the bill but still do not agree that it happened.

The money being spent in Iraq has long been exhausted by the United States. We are on borrowed money from China and the like as it sits right now.

I thought the volt was rumored to have a 15 kWh pack.

It provides a base of $2500 plus an additional $417 per kwh for batteries greater than 4 kwh.
The Vue will qualify, but not for as great a benifit.
