Do you not understand the reason why the Government has this money to hand out? How about because the me me mes get up and go to work everyday and pay taxes.
I go to work every day and pay taxes too but i never have or never will begrudge my fellow Americans any help from my tax Dollar. Maybe i'm wired different to you?

I rather make the decision myself to help my fellow Americans and I can do it alot more efficiently then the Government.
I like to cut out the middle man when at all possible.

There's nothing wrong with the truly needy getting help. But I will never ever support the notion that everyone get's an equal life regardless of how hard they worked for it.
While not perfect, that's about as effective a program as the government could have created.
Even if the American auto industry lost by a couple percentage points, they still garnered a large percentage of the sales and there's no shortage of foreign auto plants in the South benefiting from the rest.
Well done, Mr. Obama - at least from the perspective of selling cars and getting gas-guzzlers off the road.

I agree. There are those that do not have because they are unable, and then there are those that do not have for other reasons. I'm all for helping the first group.
"WASHINGTON - Cash for Clunkers generated nearly 700,000 new car sales and ended under its $3 billion budget, the Transportation Department said Wednesday.
Releasing final data, the government said dealers submitted 690,114 vouchers totaling $2.88 billion. New car sales through the program ended late Monday and dealers were allowed to submit paperwork to the government until late Tuesday.
Japanese automakers Toyota, Honda and Nissan accounted for 41 percent of the new vehicle sales, outpacing Detroit automakers General Motors, Ford and Chrysler, which had a share of nearly 39 percent. Toyota Motor Corp. led the industry with 19.4 percent of new sales, followed by General Motors Co. with 17.6 percent and Ford Motor Co. with 14.4 percent."
Posting this for those wingnutters that claimed the final statistics wouldn't be released.
0bama Motors sold a lot of vehicles, seems like that was the plan.
And for all those people who thought they were getting free money, you not only pay taxes on the full sale price of the new car, and in many cases that price was inflated by the car dealer because of CFC, but you also have to pay taxes on the $4,500 government gift come April 15th.
