It amazes me that people, meaning Congressional representatives, don't understand the very basic tenets of economics. Anyone with a low level understanding would see how this program would produce unintended consequences for the economy. As Ron Paul states, this artificially inflated demand temporarily, but this demand will stop and cause hardship for automakers in the future. Unless the cash for clunkers becomes a permanent fixture, just like deductible mortgage interest did for homes.

Ron Paul's bill is a lot, LOT better...
