Is the narrow cash for clunkers program a missed opportunity to give a desperately needed boost to the car industry

01/04/2008

The narrow profile for the cash for clunkers program in the USA makes the customers people who are economically challenged in the midst of a deep recession, making it different from the German program that boosted sales by 40% in 2009 over 2008. WIth only $1 billion for the American program and 5 billion euros in Germany the American program is also too small to make an impact.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
