The effect (or goal?) of the Obama regime’s ‘cash for clunkers’ idiocy:
- People are going into debt in exchange for their fully paid-for vehicles
- The vehicles that are traded-in are required to be destroyed, eliminating a huge source of spare parts for other paid-for vehicles
- Shortages created in the low-cost used car market, thus driving up the cost of used cars, thus hurting the poor
Create debt-slaves; hurt the poor; create massive amounts of waste. Mission accomplished.
Update: How much energy is required to produce the new cars that will replace these “clunkers”? Where are the enviro-Nazis on this one?
Also making it hard for used car dealers to find good clean running cars to sell so will put many out of business and more workers will lose their jobs.

Just read your, nail on the head article this morning after finishing an article I wrote for my blog site, octogenariansblog.com. titled;”lunacy economics: clunkers for cash crazies copied from Great Depression Roosevelt era” Hopefully posted in next coupla days.
I lived during that era, and this modus operandi is all so De Je Vou, only worse.
If you furnish me your e-mail address I!ll forward you an advance copy of my lengthy article on clunkers.
Thanks for your great writings
