Questions, questions, questions.

A $4,500 voucher provided by our government to the purchaser of a new car if they have a trade in vehicle that gets less than 18 miles per gallon.

The cars won't be resold by the dealer to used car dealers but all of them go to the scrapyard by default.

Who scraps the car, the owner at the scrapyard with an accompanying receipt or the new car dealer sends it to the scrap yard and does the dealer get the scrap car price as the owner would?

Does the scrapyard pay the normal weight as they usually would for a junk car?

Is this scrap metal sold to other countries and for what price per pound?

Are we or are they going to break even or suffer a MASSIVE loss on the sale of the scrap steel compared to the subsidy of $4,500.

Our government provides $4,500 for a car that is scrapped and sold to another country for PENNIES in comparison.

Not a good deal for the US taxpayer or any of our exports that's part of our GNP.

Compare the $4,500 to this:
