When Is This Going To End

Now for cars ? Guess I'll take a pass at any Bergstrom dealer next time I need a car or truck. Is he crazy or does he really miss those Brett Favre Bergstrom commercials?

Wisconsin auto dealer John Bergstrom thinks a government discount to the tune of $5,000 might be enough to jump-start sluggish auto sales. A Wall Street Journal blog post this afternoon reported that Bergstrom made the argument in a letter to President Barack Obama.

An excerpt from the WSJ blog:

"If the government, manufacturers, the financial institutions, and the dealers all work together, we could give our economy a huge positive jolt,” he wrote in a letter to President Barack Obama late last week. “If for 90 days, February 15 through May 15, everyone who purchased a new vehicle in America (no matter where it was built) will be given a government voucher for $5,000; and the manufacturer would match it with another $5,000 voucher…we could get this industry rolling again in a hurry.”

What do you think? Should Uncle Sam give us $5,000 vouchers to go buy a new car?" What would it take to get you to buy a car? - JSOnline
