Cash For Clunkers Bill Passes The House


JUST IN:


WASHINGTON (AP) — The House has approved the "cash for clunkers" bill to boost lagging auto sales.
The bill would allow consumers to turn in their gas-guzzling cars and trucks for a $4,500 voucher for more fuel-efficient vehicles.
President Barack Obama has encouraged Congress to approve consumer incentives for new car purchases as part of the government's work to restructure General Motors and Chrysler. The House approved the bill 298-119.

Ironic timing, isn't it? With Chrysler in bankruptcy, GM in bankruptcy....who's going to want to buy a new car from a bankrupt company? No problem!! Our Government, aka Obama-ass has a plan! Just turn in your clunker to the new Government Motors, (which must be driveable, no older than 1984 and get more than 18 mpg), they will give you a voucher for $4500.00 TOWARDS the price of a new fuel effiicient matchbox! Such a deal! NOT.

Do you have a job? Do you qualify for financing? Can you afford the payment? Should you go in to debt for a new car? Obviously, our Government run auto company thinks you should.

I foresee our Government putting Ford out of business, because I'd be willing to bet this new incentive will be applicable only to the cars GM will sell.

I also foresee, this bill turning in to a mandatory thing. Our Government (Obama-ass) doesn't want us driving SUV's, pickups, or paid for older models. They want us driving tiny deathtraps. All in the name of carbon emissions.

omg.
