Default Re: Senate Bill 1766

Many states have proposed these types of 'clunker laws' over the years, but most realized their ineffectiveness at actually cleaning up the air and dismissed them.

These proposals are something that the oil/energy companies are trying to 'buy' into federal law so that they don't have to clean up their production practices. They buy the cars from goodwill agencies, who solicit you to donate your car to them so you can take the tax writeoff at the federal value in the 'donation' book!!!

So, if you donate your old car to an non-profit agency thinking it will be used for a good cause, think again - they simply sell it to the oil companies to raise a little cash. Ironic?
