Getting fed up...

I would walk through our Pick N Pull and look at all the shiny paint jobs of the newly arrived cash for clunkers and think about what a waste of resources. When you left the yard you would look at all the clunkers in the parking lot that all those cars were going to donate parts to, to keep them on the road. Yeah the Government doing what it does best. Waste resources!!!!

Recalls a science fiction story of a future where a suitor is poor because his family has "so much stuff". Turns out they only way economists figured to keep everyone employed and factories running was to churn out products which were dumped gratis on people. Rich people could avoid that and live a less cluttered life. A bit true with the free government checks during Covid, from Obama, Trump, and Biden. Cash For Clunkers was similar, to stimulate new car sales. I too saw some nice vehicles at PicNPull, but you were allowed to pick parts. I don't know about the whole engine.
