The main reason for the recession is that people were so far in debt. So, let's incentivise them to take on more debt by destroying perfectly good cars, which are probably already paid for, and finance new ones. And that's excatly what the government wants, the less money you have the less liberty and choices you also have. These perfectally good cars were the ones that lower income families or people just getting started in the work force could afford. Now they will be scarcer and the prices for these cars will increase. Finally why would you just crush them? What a waste. OK, perhaps you would want to immobilize them but but arent the rest of the parts worth something? I thopught all of the tree huggers insisted on recycling everything. The only place these cars are going to be recycled to is China to help pay our debt. And finally, when you go into the government site to find if you car is on the clunker list you have just unknowingly given the government total and unending access to your computer, forever. You see, not only does the government get you into additional debt, tell you what to drive, how to spend what little money you have, it will also be able to monitor your every keystroke forever. Big Brother IS watching, Carl Marx is alive and well.
