These battey systems are going to require some sort of eureka! from one of these companies.

I guess my issue is choice. If I want to buy any battery, it's my choice. Paying these battery companies via taxes removes that choice. It's simply the gov't doing whatever the hell they want with money they did not earn. If they want to subsidize battery technology (or car/bank bailouts for that matter), add other little checkboxes (where you can donate for presidential elections) in the tax return forms so people can donate what they want.
