Cash For Clunkers - Looking Back

The figures just came out today, courtesy of Edmunds.com - each of the cars turned in for the "Cash For Clunkers" program, which was a program "sold" to us as costing $4500 per car actually cost taxpayers a whopping $24,000 for each car, after figuring in all the associated costs to taxpayers.

I would like to personally thank Senators Snowe and Collins for voting for this program - I wasn't feeling like I had been fleeced enough this year, but now I see they are working very hard to fleece us all.

Quite the report, everyone should read it. Cash for Clumkers was still a drop in the bucket compared to the proposed health care initative that those two bone-heads will most likely approve.
