... re the 'cash for clunkers' program




... in other words, record LOW auto sales in the month of September, despite the fact that there were still a few 'cash for clunkers' sales included in the monthly total. In point of fact, the expected 8.3 million sales number for post-clunkers program auto sales sets a new low which reaches all the way back to 1976. It is also expected the future months's sales numbers will continue to look equally bad. But hey, they had a great party for a month thanks to the 'clunkers' money ... which US taxpayers will continue paying for over the next 10-20-30 years (with interest).
