    Except post about it again and again and again. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.Since I'm not a sexual, I never heard of that website. But you, you are like a Google for gays.

    You're a Gaygle.
    My bad.... Thought you told me you sucked the off of balls. I sincerely apologize.

    Since you gots have a hard time with me calling you gots I will stop. But I will say this. You sexuals really need to quit sticking ur kawks in holes. It is beyond perverted. FYI..... I don't believe in God. I believe in common sense. That says no ing holes where comes from. Most importantly to me is you should not base ur vote on a candidate that says it it ok for men to suck each other off. Most are lying to you anyway. Look at Obama. You don't think for one second if Obama saw two dudes ing he would not puke.

    first time I've been to this thread. and I only read the first page.

    There are less ty polluters on the road and a of a lot more people spending tens of thousands on new cars.
    I don't see how getting people to trade in their paid off cars and take on tens of thousands of new debt is helping anything.

    Gov't: Let's get consumers further in debt!!

    Gov't: and us too!!

    I'm at odds with the program. I might actually be the best stimulus they have done. Still, how many of these people would have bought anyway? I think most of the people participating are just being subsidized for no good reason. I'm sure it's making the difference for some. Hard to tell though.
    Thanks for the thoughtful take WC.

    Now we need a Cash-For-Assholes program to cash in for killing those assholes that do 25 MPH on a 40 MPH street...

    I think the argument as to why this is a stupid program to begin with goes something like this:

    America doesn't need new cars for Americans to buy. America already has plenty of cars that work just fine. What America needs is to build new cars to export overseas.

    Its like saying, "Why not cash for crappy cities? We can burn down Detroit, heck why not every major city, and rebuild them with government money in an eco friendly manner! Think of the GDP! We can be like china and continually see 10% growth in the economy every quarter!"

    In other words this program doesn't help the economy no matter how much the govt. pretend it does. If the economy needed it the govt. wouldn't have to subsidize it. All it helps is to lower the level of co2.

    So with these sales, the car companies can expand production to sell cars overseas. They probably were are already getting money from the government to market them overseas.

    I doubt a lack of this revenue is the primary limitation of car exports. True increased business is always good, but that's a pretty big jump to make to say this program is going to lead to increased exports.

    If that really was the goal, there are better ways to do it anyway.

    I'm saying it's not going to hurt. Artificial market restrictions are probably the largest obstacle, but a loosening of such restrictions during a worldwide recession is a bit of a pipe dream in my opinion.

    It wasn't the real goal. You see the priorities differently.

    americans cars can't even hold a stand in the local market. More and More americans would rather spend their green papers on Japanese cars which are relatively cheap and energy efficient, and the sky-rocketing oil prize pumps more fuel to the fast blooming of Japanese cars and the regression of domestic cars. And I don't expect the people of any other country to purchase Americans cars in big amount, since even the American consumers are reluctant to pay the long bills of oil.

    It was the concept of so-called "free market" that killed the two auto giants. I'm not sick of the hard-working automakers who designed and produced those foreign cars, as their cars are so good as to save their owners dollars and help mitigate the global warming.

    No one will purchase a car only because it's "american", we just choose the one which is the most worthy of our money. Then our dollars reasonably flow into the pockets of Japanese car dealers. The federal government should tax on those foreign cars even though not very hard, just to make some squeezed room for local cars to live.
