Nonetheless, irrespective of goverment regualtions, cars are exponentially faster, more efficient, more user friendly, and safer than they were just a few years ago. As long as there is competition, cars will get better.

Where do I start with that one???

Cars are entirely too expensive because of all of the government mandated safety, emissions, etc....

If the car costs $2000 more than it should, that takes a long time to recover for a few mpg better. If you're driving 10k miles a year and your car gets 30 mpg vs 25 mpg, that is a difference of 70 gallons/year or $210/year. It would take you 10 years to make that difference up!
