So here is some total waste
Cash for clunkers.
Does this Volvo look like a clunker? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waj2K...layer_embedded Could they have resold it or parted it out to reclaim some of the dollars back in to the program? ****ing morons idea was to destroy engines as some kind of validation. They could have sandbagged the title and VIN to keep the cars off the road? And trading in an 18mpg car for a 22mpg does jack ****. This is a $3B waste. |

Perhaps SOTS should sponsor a clown car for clunkers program. |

Or we could pay to bomb a sovereign country's infrastructure twice and rebuild it (minus fresh water, etc.) via no-bid contracts. Wait, we already did that and it's not socialism when only the rich benefit. I agree on one thing-- the only good Volvo is a dead Volvo, unless you own a repair shop of course. --D-y |

You have to ask, "Why was this Volvo worth less than $3500?" before you can go any further with the questions. |

I've had the 'pleasure' of shopping for a new car this week and have spoken with a number of folks at the dealerships I've visited CARS. Funny thing, but the VAST majority of clunkers turned in weren't actually being driven by the owners, but just happened to be a third, or sometimes fourth, car that they finally decided to get rid of. CARS hasn't taken any significant number of clunkers off the road, but rather got them out of the driveways of folks who've been holding onto them for years. I'm glad my tax dollars have been used to motivate folks to finally get their junk out of their driveways. The money spent on CARS may be good for car dealerships, but it is not meeting any stated ecological goals in getting guzzlers off the roads. |
