i think i may have been a bit misleading with this.

some try to pass bills requiring us to trade in our jalopies for "incentives" towards a new electric hybrid.
the key word in the quote above is try.
there is,like texan mentioned, a "cash for clunkers" program that is completely voluntary.

what i was reffering to was about a year ago some duckbag from iowa or utah or something like that decided to try to slip a proposal in with another bill(state law) that would REQUIRE owners to trade in their non-running jalopies for so called "incentives" towards a hybrid with possible fines for anyone who did'nt.
this bill also included junkyards so my guess is that that politician was probably into land development on the side and was trying to clear land to buy.


i'm glad to see that this thread has already gotten a few new members.
i'm not one that really believes in organizations for the most part but this one actually does make a difference.
