To The Editor:
Regarding the Fed’s “Cash for Clunkers” program or folly, if you will pardon my pun, when it “backfires,” as most federal brainstorms do. The clunkers are to be sent to North Jersey for scrapping, North Jersey where political corruption reigns.

One more possible scenario, more hanky-panky paperwork. So there is no doubt in my mind that a good percentage of these clunkers will wind up south of the border to pollute some third world country. Betcha!
