Why, it sends tingles up Chris Matthews' legs: that's stimulus!<br /><br />Here in Vermont, I see Green Jobs popping up all over, such as picking wild berries to ward off starvation. Of course, this leads inevitably to clashes with bears of no particular color, but thankfully the administration has generously protected our right to bear sharp sticks.Dan Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18003419431016626023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223398383609158624.post-5752194727043332492009-07-31T08:45:44.995-04:002009-07-31T08:45:44.995-04:00Not that I disagree with Alan Reynold's sentim...Not that I disagree with Alan Reynold's sentiment, but his plan won't work. You don't get a $4,500 "voucher." The dealer takes your old car and takes up to $4,500 of the price of the new car. (And you don't get an additional trade-in allowance, because the car is supposed to be destroyed. The dealer gets reimbursed.) So at best you could trade an older SUV for a new econobox, put some cash down, take the financing, and then you could go and trade that in for your new muscle car, but since your econobox is no longer showroom-new, you would probably have, let's say, $3,000-$4,000 to work with, and you'd better have great credit.<br /><br />Now, speaking personally and with no concern for free-market principles, I'd be glad if Bammy shoves another couple of billion at this project, because I've got a '98 Chevy Suburban I would just as soon trade in before it needs new tires. <br /><br />Keep up the good work, Mr. McCain!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18413864530501376455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223398383609158624.post-314908289768576762009-07-31T08:26:22.037-04:002009-07-31T08:26:22.037-04:00Alan Reynolds clearly has no clue how the car mark...Alan Reynolds clearly has no clue how the car market works.
