Our government should worry about security not worry about FORCING companies into making products.
That's easy to say now when you do not feel that the increased prices are effecting your life very much due to your high income or whatever. What you need to realize is that we need to solve this issue now before we get in over our heads.

No it doesn't that's up to our government, your idea makes no financial sense... spending $600 on a lease. I'm all for hybrids when it's cost effective.
The kind of influence I want our government to have is to hasten the progress of cars such as hybrids so that they become cost effective. I think the problem is that you want solutions and you want them now just like everyone else but you don't want to pay for that fast progress even if it means saving a lot of money in the grand scheme of things.
