What’s another $2 Billion on top of the $1 Billion for the Clunker Car Program? I’ll tell you, it’s $3 Billion in bureaucratic chicken shit, that’s what it is.
“The House of Representatives approves $2 billion more for the popular but financially strapped “cash for clunkers” car purchase program, heeding calls from U.S. consumers who hope to keep taking advantage of the trade-in incentives.”
Heeding calls from consumers? Wake the frig up. I bet half the cars in the heap of trade ins aren’t worth that in the first place. The banks will finance folks for the full amount of the new car until payments can’t be made and people default on the loan or lease. If I got a check for $4500 and couldn’t make my house payment or buy food, the car payment is last on my list.
Betcha they don’t even have to be an American Made. Oh WTF? The government ran out of money on a clunker program the first week and people believe it can run our health care system?
Why not just give a few billion to ACORN so they can issue bad loans that will never get paid back again either.
I for one want to see exactly how many cars were sold last week, and under which brand- compared to the previous weeks sales.
Really, why not bail out the chicken farmer or the pork farmers with all this Swine and Avian Flu? Oh, the privileges of socialism.
