You mean another cash for clunkers scheme? Like the one that has caused the prices of cars to skyrocket already?

Yeah, great idea there.

Causing car prices to increase post-recession was kind of the point of cash for clunkers, but I don’t see why something more targeted has to have the same effect.

Yeah, and look where that led us. Have you seen what the average car payment is?

Cash for clunkers has directly caused what will be the next subprime loan crisis.

Why would I want the govt screwing up the situation even more?
