Cash For Clunkers- A Simple Minded Scheme
Aug 5, 2009 Political
Well, the one billion dollars allocated for the “Cash for Clunkers” program, a program ostensibly to get inefficient autos off of the street, was supposed to last until October. It lasted four days, as Hussein’s idea to load people up with more debt and begin a cascade effect on our economy has worked even better than the Anti- Christ had hoped.
Just as the home mortgage crisis set off the financial mess we are in, the Resident wants to keep the hurt going, so he can “save” us from ourselves. I want to know just who is a big enough fool to go out and put themselves in debt when they had a car that worked just fine and was paid for? Okay, if your car was old and showing signs of dying, perhaps then, although a brand new car is one of the worst things to buy, as it retains less resale value than almost anything else made in this world.
What this program is really doing is (1)- causing us to accumulate more debt, and (2)- reducing the number of used cars on the car lots, thus reducing our choices of something other than new cars.
It is interesting to note that if the thought was to help out GM and Chrysler, neither of these automakers has one car on the top ten, and seven of the top ten new cars bought with this C4C program were foreign cars, and the top model was a Ford.
Does this scheme remind anyone of Barney Frank’s scheme to get poor people into homes they could not afford? Remember? That was the Genesis for the mess we are in now- and now the Liberals want to do it to us with cars- bury us in debt, so we beg the Resident to save us from repossession.
What’s next? Everyone deserves to have a boat?
Fifty-four percent (54%) of Americans oppose any further funding for the federal “cash for clunkers” program which encourages the owners of older cars to trade them in for newer, more fuel-efficient ones.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 33% of adults think Congress should authorize additional funding to keep the program going now that the original $950 million allocated for it has run out. Thirteen percent (13%) are not sure.
These numbers are virtually identical to the findings in mid-June just after Congress
first approved the plan when 35% favored it while 54% were opposed.
Men favor continuation of the program more than women. African-Americans like it more than whites. Lower-income Americans, not surprisingly, are more supportive of it than those who earn more.
Seventy-three percent (73%) of Republicans and 51% of adults not affiliated with either major party are opposed to continuing the “cash for clunkers” program. Democrats are closely divided over the question.

The numbers are not good,Hussein- you might want to re- think the whole take over idea. Generally the governments of this world are not run by the village idiot, but in your case, I guess the blind pig did indeed find the ACORN.
So you are going to ” Fundamentally Change America” as we know it. You want to change America from what has made it the greatest nation in the world, to what would lower it to third- world status, because you were taught mindless pap by your college professors and worthless Marxist friends, and you have never been out in the real world enough to know that all of that theory does not work.
The bad part about all of this is that there are a bunch of airheads that think as you do, and really do not care for America and what has made us great- they have grown up with their hippie philosophy, and have never matured in their thoughts since then- their logical development has been retarded, as in “held back” from maturing. I know, I have friends like that, God bless their little liberal hearts.
This is just another thread by which the mental Lilliputians try to tie down the Giant that is America. I have to say that they already have a bunch of threads tying us down, and it is becoming harder and harder to rise from this ridiculous position.
I listen to politicians on the left, and I feel as if they have their own brand of Jabberwocky- speak that makes sense only to the senseless, and I wonder if I have slipped down the rabbithole.
If so, it is time for a tea party.
