More Crappy Legislation from Congress

I am absolutely disgusted with the recent car voucher legislation being proposed by Congressional Democrats. The proposal would
provide up to $4,500 in vouchers to car buyers
with the requirements being
New cars must get at least 22 miles per gallon, while sport utilities and pickups -- the biggest sellers for U.S. manufacturers -- must achieve at least 18 mpg. Vehicles priced at over $45,000 are not eligible.
So let me get this straight. You want to give away my tax dollars to people so they can buy a car that costs up to 3x as much as I paid for my Saturn and gets as much as 36% worse fuel economy that my car which is 8 years old?

Vote them all out!!!!!

Oh, you think that's bad? You're only talking about cars.

You think health care is expensive now, just wait until it's free.

Steve Newton made a good point this week.

Socialism doesn't work. I've studied Chinese modern history for a whole semester and stand in awe of how anyone, with that example (among others) could want a socialist government or economy. How many times does this lesson need to be repeated?!
