OK, so it was a depreciation tax write-off for small businesses. Every government administration has its pet projects. In politics, no matter which party is in power, that comes with the territory. It's business as usual.

I went to the dentist once and the dental assistant was driving such a truck. Chrome dual shocks, jacked up a mile high. Not a spec of dirt.
I don't think that the dental assistant qualified for a tax write-off. At that time some people thought big vehicles were cool and they bought them on a whim. People can and do throw their money away on all sorts of wasteful frivolities. Let 'em. I just wish we wouldn't subsidize fools after they've pissed all their assets away.
