What this program is doing to to take thousands of PERFECTLY FUNCTIONAL cars out of the used car market, thus denying those who ALWAYS purchase “Pre-owned cars” the ability to do so. Democrat politicians are patting themselves on the back, as they have seriously raised the average cost of those autos purchased by those with lower incomes. More unintended consequences.
Wait until the NEW “sticker shock” kicks in.

agree, it is nuts, destroying the used cars but now DiFi wants to include used cars:)

“So, we would also include a voucher for the purchase of fuel efficient used vehicles.”

Remember, it is also taking the vital part, the engine, out of the picture for even more low-income folks who cannot afford to replace their current cars. They rely on used parts to keep their vehicles on the road.

Once again, it’s the poor who get a swift boot in the face.
