Default Cash for clunkers...

....what a great idea.

"Cash for Clunkers, which paid buyers up to $4,500 for their used cars
when they purchased more fuel efficient models, spurred strong sales
from late July through the end of the program on Aug. 24.

But it likely pulled ahead sales that might have taken place in
September and left dealers with limited supplies of vehicles to sell
coming into the fall."

Year to year comparisons show Ford down 5%, GM down 45% and Chrysler
down 42%.

Must be that Fords are just a much better auto than GM or Chrysler.

All decisions, even those of liberals, are the result of binary thinking.
