How Much Did 'Cash for Clunkers' Cost?

White House economist Jared Bernstein: "In other words, I'm sure that some of those sales were pulled forward...we really need that growth now. Pulling sales forward is actually helpful."

This statement says a lot about this administration's approach to the economy.

Borrow growth from the future. Kick the can down the road. Cross that bridge when we come to it. Why do today what we can put off until tomorrow.

Is this administration so unforgivably stunned that it actually thinks this is a sound approach?
