CASH FOR CLUNKERS

CASH FOR CLUNKERS

So I went out and in the spirit of helping the environment and the economy bought a new car trading in my eight hundred dollar vehicle for four thousand five hundred dollars, tax free.

So did the congress succeed in its dual goals of helping the economy and the environment, I believe not. Mine was not the worst vehicle on the road by far, only older, it still had good mileage, well, decent, it was in good repair, and was not the vehicle with the worst mileage or exhaust on the road, someone could have used it for a long time still, for transportation while taking a worse vehicle off the road.

I think the program could have been better, and IF the government comes out with a similar plan again, the dealer should be allowed to let a poorer person with a worse vehicle get a better vehicle that has been traded in, and get the really bad one off the road. May be the Red Cross, or the United Way, or even a church could help by taking the trade in vehicle like the one I had, and let someone else with a really bad vehicle (with similar registration and insurance requirements) swap theirs out for free. Then the agency or church could sell the vehicle for junk to a junkyard. That would really help clean up the environment and help out a lot more people than the ones who would have been buying a new car soon any way.


LIFE IS A GAME OF CONNECT THE DOTS, IF YOU DON'T CONNECT ALL THE DOTS OR DON'T CONNECT THEM IN THE RIGHT ORDER YOU NEVER GET THE PICTURE
