I was curious if anyone that is in the auto salvage industry was getting cars from the local dealerships in your area?  It seems that alot of the big corporate auto salvage companies are recieving all the scrap in some places.  I do not see how the goverment did not organize the scrap end better.  I believe that the cars should go to auto salvage or scrap yards within the zip code of the dealerships that they were traded in at.  Don’t you agree that  would help stimulate the small salvage businesses throughout America?  Instead the big corporate companies are recieving the scrap in some areas. Locking in dealerships.  Maybe they could have rotated the cars to the businesses on the list of yards that could recieve Junk cars?  What are your views on this issue?  Is your business gaining profits or suffering losses from the “Cash for Clunkers” program?

I was wondering what your thoughts were on the Cash For Clunkers program that has recently been passed been President Obama.  This program in a nut shell, says that American car dealerships will honor a voucher given by the Gov’t., for up to $4500, towards a new car that gets at least 4mpg better than the car they are trading.  The cars traded in can not be resold to salvage yards or scrap yards.  The vehicles have to be destroyed.  This article found in USA TODAY by James R. Healey, explains the program; http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/2009-05-11-chrysler-gm-cash-clunkers_N.htm
