Is that "Cash for Clunkers" (1 mile more per gallon trade-in) really helping anyone?
No. It does not significantly reduce carbon emissions or conserve fuel. Of course, it benefited people who saw an opportunity to improve their private transportation at public expense. However, corrupting people by leading them into temptation is not really helping them.
On the other side of the ledger, it caused thousands of perfectly serviceable vehicles to be destroyed, a net loss of real capital. This removed these vehicles from the used-car market, forcing many poor people and teenage buyers out of the market. It also hurt the automobile mechanics who make a living by keeping these vehicles on the road.
On the whole, it was a significant loss to our economy and to our national character.
Cheers,
Bruce
