I have to admit that I'm a little put off by what my liberal friends in government have done with the Cash for Clunkers bill. We're taking perfectly good cars off the road and destroying them.
From a financial standpoint, it's a good program -- if you're spending stimulus money, this is a great way to do it. But they should have made the qualifications on trade-ins stricter, i.e., the car must be at least 10 years old and you must improve gas mileage at least 10 mpg.
I have seen videos online of cars that had no business being taken off the road being destroyed. This will cause a shortage in the used car markets and could negatively impact those poorer folks looking for a cheaper vehicle.
I blame the limousine liberals -- of course, they've traded in their limos for Priuses.
