another word from our sponsors

I’d like to thank everyone for their keyword submissions for the Ad generating experiment. There are several posts brewing and the fun should begin soon. In the meantime, here are some additional thoughts on the whole topic of ads, and of liberal ads.

If a reader’s opinion of a political topic is swayed by seeing an ad on this site, they either shouldn’t be online without parental supervision, or they aren’t on a site that expresses their views and won’t return anyway.

If readers are angered or offended by seeing liberal ads, they don’t have to click on them. They have a choice. When I see the ads, I just remember that ads cost the advertiser money, so all I’m doing is helping THE FREE MARKET SYSTEM re-distribute some of George Soros’ money.

The financials of cash for clunkers in a nutshell..

Let me see if I understand this correctly…

A vehicle at 15 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 800 gallons a year of gasoline. A vehicle at 25 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 480 gallons a year.

So, the average "Cash for Clunkers" transaction will reduce US gasoline consumption by 320 gallons per year. They claim 700,000 vehicles – so that's 224 million gallons / year.

That equates to a bit over 5 million barrels of oil. 5 million barrels of oil is about ¼ of one day's US consumption. And, 5 million barrels of oil costs about $350 million dollars at $70/bbl.

So, we all contributed to spending $3 billion to save $350 million.

uh ok....wait, WHAT?
