Jobs were not saved, factory managers didn't say "Hey! We are selling lots of cars, we better ramp up production." People sold cars they were going to sell already. Dealers did not keep sales people on the floor because of this program. It resulted in nothing other than wasting a massive amount of taxpayer money. But you are a proud liberal and there's no way to change your mind or confuse you with the facts of the situation. Think what you want…the program did not spur our economy or create jobs.

Creating jobs and bringing people back to work is a terrible thing to do!! This program wasn't created to save oil, the environment, or money. It was created to get people back to work and get the auto industry going again. And it did exactly that.
