Cash For Dave

This was going to be so small that I was not going to write about it. Cash for Clunkers, This is another GREAT socialist program from the No' Bama's!!!!! BTW I'm just going to start throwing him and his hordes together because they are all the same. I have several problems with this.

1) They are totally jacking up the used car market.

2) It's not that environmentally friendly, if at all.

3) Who the hell are they to take $4500.00 of my dollars and give it to you to buy a car.

Let's start with income redistribution. This kills me, it's just another socialist BS program. We just spent billions and billions to bail out "the little two" and now we pay people to buy their cars. I thought the point of bailout and bankruptcy was to reduce and restructure so they could continue on their own? Shoot, sorry I forgot. We gave it to the Unions and the Government, so that's never gonna happen!!! But, if we are going to pay people to buy a car then why not limit it to American cars?

The used car Market. Listen people, from what I understand most of these cars getting turned over still have alot of life. Some people are in the market for a new car and some people are in the market for a used car. We just took a couple hundred thousand off the market not to mention used parts. Poor people have to but used cars and used parts. Trust me I've been there.

Now, all this green BS. You can trade up for as little as a 4 miles per gallon difference. Yes, I understand that 4 mpg is 4 mpg and that if everyone got an additional 4 mpg that would help tremendously. Keep in mind all the cars we just took off the market that could be no more than 18 years old and the people that could have purchased those to replace their "clunkers". You know the ones, that smoke when you're behind them and get about 10mpg. Remember, just because your car was stickered for 24mpg doesn't mean you're getting it. However, if you do little stuff like insuring proper tire pressure and having a clean airfiter that will increase your mpg significantly.

This program is out of money. The House just voted to fund another 2 billion. Bottom line, where is mine? They could pay me to shut up. Couple grand a week and I'll just start talking to myself :-)

Have A Great Cavalry Day!!
