Cash for Clunkers
Looks like the cash for clunkers program did very well for auto dealers here in southern Illinois. However, the fact that the success of the program was so woefully unanticipated gives me pause for concern about the health care debate. If the administration so greatly underestimated the length of time until the money appropriated for the program ran out,how does that impact their credibility on time frames or costs in relation to health care?

Now you're getting it. Just because there's a social problem doesn't mean the government will be able to do a good job solving it.
