Really disappointing to see the government do this. A freaking Mazda truck? Don't those things get great mileage?
Ranting follows:
Whats even more disturbing is people trading in cars they OWN for a few saved dollars on gas that will never cover the DEBT they are buying with their new car.
Successful program? Typical liberal media. Why not say "look how fast the government can spend the money they're taking out of your pay check!"
Has anyone ever calculated exactly how much of what you make goes to the government? Including property taxes, sales taxes, gas/road taxes, income taxes...whether it be state or federal.
Maybe when I get my plane built I'll fly up to Alaska, as far away from this government as I can get yet still have some footing on part of the USA that doesn't getting trampled on much. Because of its population density, I doubt it will ever be a liberal state, at least not in my lifetime.

I did see a bumper sticker on someones truck at my work place that said "It may be a clunker, but it's MY clunker!" At least someone still has a head on strait.
