re: Canada cuts ecoAUTO.... NOT COOL!

There is one flaw with giving rebates and penalties - companies adjust the price accordingly, so the incentive is only a mental thing because people see the "rebate" on the invoice.

There's one flaw with handing over 250 million dollars to the auto industry, though... it won't do squat!!!
