Cash for Clunkers: To Donate or Not to Donate...That is the Question


Whether it is nobler to give your car to one of the worthy car donation programs, sell it, or trade it in as a down-payment on a rice burner (as part of Obama's plan to stimulate his re-election in 2012) has NOTHING to do with genuine nobility. Let's face it, my fellow American--you are going to do what's best for you.

But as it turns out, what's often best for you is good for humanity, too. Even if you're really ready to buy an expensive, brand new vehicle (which you just might be), you're usually better off getting a maximum tax credit by giving the clunker to a legit charity. And some of them are doing really good things with the money. I may get the jim-jams from their jingle, but Kars4Kids has their act together.
