The Real "Cash For Clunkers" Should Have Been This

Let me be the first to propose a new spin on the "Cash For Clunkers" program that is or isn't and now is still running. (Again, everyone in the media misses the fact that it is irrelevant if the program is still running or not, it should have never existed in the first place.)

Anyway... my proposal is fairly simple. A bit of background first.

I live in Pennsylvania. I don't know much about my "representatives" other than PA's governor is "Fast" Eddie Rendell (or Swindell if you prefer). Arlen Specter investigated Bill Belichik and switched parties. I think I read somewhere that John Murtha is corrupt. The mayor of Pittsburgh is Luke Ravenstahl, or Steelerstahl if we are making another Super Bowl run. (Yes, he actually changed his name last year before the AFC Championship game.)

So with that backdrop, I am proposing that we initiate a new "Cash For Clunkers" program that deals with politicians. I'll take 50 cents and a promise that none of my "representatives" ever get involved in my life again. I also propose extending this program all the way to Washington DC (home of the biggest criminal racket the world has known). Hell, I'll donate to the fund that has them all shipped overseas, never to return or be heard from again. But I figure I might as well get some cash in the deal.
