This program is a good example of what’s wrong with our government. It gives some people a small cash award now but will increase their tax burden later.
A democratic government should only provide the services that private companies can’t or won’t provide, (transportation infrastructure, water, national security…)
This program will add $3+ billion to the national debt and will be paid for by taxing the same people who think it is a good idea.

I don't qualify because my car already gets good gas mileage. My dad swears by the car buying process here: http://excarsalesman.typepad.com/ It is kind of similar. I haven't tried it yet, but I might because it looks good. I have a feeling dealers are going to automatically increase prices because of the increased demand (artificial) for lower MPG cars. So the thousands of savings from this bill for consumers is not entirely accurate. The demand will increase prices and you'll get a voucher from increased prices. I'm certain some markets you'll come out even as if they never offered this voucher. It is poorly written legislation.

This bill would put every charity car donation program in the nation out of business since the amount of the voucher would be much greater than the tax deduction. The solution is to simply restore the amount a donor can claim for their donation back to the blue book value. This way, everyone wins, the car dealer, car maker, car buyer and the charity.
