    Regardless of your politics, the truth of that statement depends strongly on your POV about the future price of oil.

    Thanks, but the fact that they pay means that my employment contract prohibits me from posting there.

    Just remember to use Petersen's technique and mention some stocks since it's supposed to be an investment site. I guess every article could mention why TSLA is a great investment.

    I've never earned a penny for my comments. Frankly I never noticed that they had a system of payment for articles.

    Some John Peterson anti-FUD here:

    Electric Vehicles: No House of Cards

    Once again, John Petersen has gone too far with his petrol-head arguments against Electric Vehicles (EVs.)

    It looks like it's only for page views of articles your write, not comments you make. You should do it if possible.

    Could you could refuse payment for posting articles? Not sure if that would make any difference though with your contract.

    Seems Petersen doesn't even agree with his own article! In response to Konrad on the original site:
    I don't disagree with much that you've said...

    BBC News - Electric cars future continues to remain unpredictable

    First time I've seen the BBC mention the Volt fire and no qualification of it either.

    Well I thought I wrote a good response to Mr.Peterson only to find it has to be approved by the moderator. I kept it clean and backed up all facts (like a barrel of oil only yields 19 gal of gasoline not 42) and the reply was not posted. So I will stay away from the site in the future given there is a slim chance he gets paid on the number of hits.
