tose blazer and the rest of them and that f 150 shoulda been saved, and those mini trucks, it would be wise the they didnt crushed them,what a waste, fuck the goverment, i didnt vote at all,they didnt done shit for me

People seem to forget that we are in a recession. Remember the history books when the great depression happened and everybody had too much stuff.. and no body was buying anything? I guess revisionist history has erased everything and now people listen to idiots like Glen Beck. It's sad... yeah.. It seems like a waste but the economy works in strange ways sometimes.
How presumptuous you are, oneof6B! When you destroy 700,000 of our nation's automotive resources, you only hurt the economy by making it more expensive or impossible for working people to get to work to earn the money to buy what they need/desire. This program was a terrorist attack and you're blind to it.
The Great Depression was a normal recession turned into a hellish inferno by the federal government's incompetent attempt to "fix" it through 1) destructive monetary policy 2) destructive tariffs that sparked an awful trade war 3) the New Deal and 4) the Wagner Act. To say we need government to lower our standard of living to get us working is nothing but a fascist's wet dream. The debt incurred from this program will require massive tax increases which will kill people's willingness to invest.
The New Deal: FDR's Treasury Secretary, Henry Morgenthau, wrote in his private diary: "We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work. ... We have never made good on our promises. ... I say after 8 years we have just as much unemployment ...and an enormous debt to boot!"
What about the contractor in his beat to hell truck with shot ball joints who can not afford a new car? Sure looks like that mid 90's Silverado or F-150 would be safer, yes? Or the low income family with the 89 Taurus wagon that leaks a quart of oil every week and no AC?
Think they could use that Mercury Villager or that Caravan? Oh well, we bail out the car companies and then take in in the rear as there will be 3/4 of a million cars crushed and destroyed because of this program....
I agree... looks like there were some nice vans in there. A low income family could use one of those. MPG doesn't matter much to low income people who don't commute far to work.
You are talking about me man..... My truck is fucking falling apart, i cant afford to pay bills AND rebuild it.. But they just destroy these perfectly fine trucks. I feel like punching something
I think I'll keep my 84 grand marquis, thank you. It dosn't meet the requirements anyway! It will die a natural death, and it's useful parts will keep more of these American icons on the road.
The Durango, the Sport-Trac, and the Grand Cherokee looked AWSOME. How could they do this? It's "fucking stupid" like everyone says. That Sport-Trac is worth more that $4,500 anyways, what the hell is with that.
Being Canadian I am ignorant, burt some of those vehicles can be used in shop classes to teach kids,...no?
