Speaking of football news sites, guess who sent an email to http://www.football-italia.net/ and asked them to stop using those stupid puns.

Twadin'. Twadin' little bit.


Hey, did you know that the C4C program caused automobile prices to rise and that the cash back was taxable?

I love people who go in to debt up to their eyeballs!

Perhaps the government will come up with a "Cash for Repo-ed Cash For Clunkers Cars" program.

It's such a joke. I can't believe these people could be so stupid.

Hey, you aren't a registered consultant though. You don't show up in my local phone book.

 

[Enron]

C4C was a decent idea in theory, but no one really thought it out. Hence the tax issues and the "longevity" of the program. It could have been very successful with a little more thinking involved.

Damn, you're raging hard! Nice to see you're listening to me broskiiii!

I don't agree. Short term spikes in demand cause more volatile price fluctuations and overshooting. Moreover, artificial increasing demand in the short run does nothing for long term growth and can actually hinder it. It's very much like that gas tax holiday crap the candidates were talking about a year ago.

But the real issue here is this: if you have a car that works, you should not be going into debt to buy another one. That's what this whole program was about -- keeping the debt bubble growing.

Hmm, speaking of debt, do you take IOU's?

I think it was a stupid idea, really. It created an artificial economy in miniature with no longer-lasting effects.

Exactly.

 

[swag]

Exactly.

We may as well have spent federal funds on free gasoline for people who want to self-immolate. At least then we would have had some tangible results: we could have had quite a light show and saved some money on city electricity bills.

There's a lot more to it than that. C4C wasn't completely about sales.

It had nothing what-so-ever to do with getting more used cars on the road and eliminating high mpg vehicles and reducing the front end factory costs. This single goal of the CRC was to increase debt. That's sarcasm mind you.

As for the real issue: If your gas guzzler has your bank broken, get a new car. If not then I agree you should rock your ride until it's rocked. Speaking of rocked rides I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to get a replacement whip in the next 2-3 years.

I don't live in California, people over here don't fall for that
