Pleading Poverty?
Govt to suspend 'cash for clunkers' is how the headline reads.
Congressional officials say the government plans to suspend the popular "cash for clunkers" program amid concerns it could quickly use up the $1 billion in rebates for new car purchases.
Excuse me??
Wasn't that the whole idea???
I certainly hope some of this "fiscal restraint" shows up while they're talking about bankrupting us with national health care.
Congress truly is the opposite of progress.
