It ain't cash brother. It's the new money called govt. scrip. Only govt. approved dealers will be able to give you credit. Otherwise it's just a piece of paper with Pelosi's pic on it.

It’s gonna be fun to see the “law of unintended consequences” operate on this one!

I predict:
* New car prices will rise by, oh, let’s say, $4500...
* The unbroken caravan of used cars down I-35 to Mexico will slow... then stop... then reverse...

&etc

My thoughts almost. I drive a ‘85 3/4 ton Dodge van I gave $500 for 2 years ago.

Neighboring Cathedral City recently had a $100 "no questions asked" gun buyback program; TV news showed mostly old white guys laughingly turning in rusty, worthless, inoperative pistols.

Another feel-good use of tax dollars...

This reminds me of the gun buy back program. Buy a cheap rifle or pistol and trade in in for twice it’s worth.
