Here is a guy that gets it....

Michael LaFaive, director of fiscal policy at the Michigan Mackinac Center for Public Policy stated just today:

"The law of unintended consequences is at work always and everywhere, The headline should read 'U.S. to boost the attractiveness of used cars by 2016'."

He went on to state that until the old fleet of vehicles flat-out sputters and dies, consumers could be squeezing every last mile out of their used cars, in turn holding sales of new, fuel-efficient cars to a low level.
