the cost/benefit doesn't add up. what does add up is a tax credit for people who do improve the energy efficiency of their homes by adding new equipment or upgrading their current insulation.
wait, there's already a program like that? amazing....

geez it's amazing the extent obama supporters will go to explain away barry's lack of integrity and lack of doing what he said he was going to do. Most transparent administration yet, secret medical meetings, not providing clunker details, not putting his bills on the web as promised, firing attorney generals for doing their jobs and so on. But hey no problemo.

could you outline just what you want from the white house regarding the cash for clunkers program? could you explain just what "lack of integrity" and/or "lack of what he said he was going to do" as it relates to the cash for clunkers program?
what attorney general was fired?
your hate is getting the better of your reasoning.

Since you think the clunker model is so great, where is the rest of the clunker legislation. Sure it's great when the government decides which industries (no surprise here) they will support, by either borrowing from someone. Nice vote buying it sounds to me.
|
so it's "vote buying" to use the resources to stimulate the auto industry? apparently your view is they should just sit on their hands and not attempt to help, right?

Stupid program...imo..won't do a damn thing but transfer more dollars from the credit card to government motors...except...no one's buying government motors. then to destroy them is even MORE stupid.
|
yeah, "won't do a damn thing"....you should call up all those economist who are raising their predictions on the gdp and let them know they are all in error.
not to mention all those heavy polluting vehicles that are being retired and the benefit to our air quality that results, and the increased fuel efficiencies.
again, your hate is getting the better of you.
