They aren't stealing it. They are going to compensate the owners.

When you go out to your driveway tomorrow morning, and find your car gone, but a bag containing $1500 in its place, with a note saying "The Blue Book value on your car was $1500", are you going to say "I was ripped off!" or ar you going to say "I was compensated!"

excellent analogy. That makes the point very clear. Freepers are the best at presenting ideas in very clear terms.

And when you go to buy a new one you'll pay $10,000 just to get something like a Yugo. If they don't happen to pass a law right around that time that makes it illegal or near impossible to own a car at all.
