Some Surprised By 'Clunker' Tax
   
The Cash For Clunkers program is adding to the activity at treasurers' offices all around South Dakota. First, people were asking for proof of ownership, so they could show they owned their vehicle for a full year, allowing them to cash it in. Now, they'll be returning to register their new vehicle. And when they do, new owners need to bring every bit of paperwork provided to them by their dealer.

"That means they need their title, their damage disclosure, their bill of sale and the dealers have 30 days to get that to them," Minnehaha County Treasurer Pam Nelson said.

But many of those cashing in on the clunkers program are surprised when they get to the treasurer's office windows. That's because the government's rebate of up to $4500 dollars for every clunker is taxable.

"They didn't realize that would be taxable. A lot of people don't realize that. So they're not happy and kind of surprised when they find that out," Nelson said.

For now, the biggest impact of the program hasn't hit this office yet, as most of the paperwork is still in the hands of the dealers. But Nelson expects to see move activity in her office in the next month.

You would think an honest and forthright guy like Obama would have mentioned, that it's taxable, to folks.  :lmao:

And they can't figure out why us nut jobs on the right do not trust him with our health care.  :whatever:


I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

At 20%, that's $900, quite a lot of money.  Another $250 for NY, plus NY sales tax of say $2,325 for the new, and OH BOY what a great program. 
Don't have the $900?  Well then, here's a nice penalty each month and interest each month.  Happy Driving!

Kicking DUmmie envy mode into overdrive.

Since it was a gift from "The One", I hope they tax it as such...say 40%

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Just like the tax rebate for First Time Homebuyers has to be repaid for 10 years.  Poor DUmmies...even Pres. O won't give them anything for free.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Still no free lunch.  I up my percentage of defaults from C4C to 25% within six months and 40% in a year.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Probably not. Lenders have become far more particular about credit than they were previously.
Never demand that which you are incapable of taking by force, DUmmie.

I love it. :lmao:

Because of Fat Teddy's timely demise, I wasn't going to the island today. Guess I gotta row over.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.
