There isn't much the government does that isn't inefficient. They just don't have the inherent incentives to operate in the best interests of their stakeholders.

"Cash for clunkers is shutting down Monday"

So I take it you favor extending the program more?

Because it is running out of money.

Again.

The original $1 billion was supposed to last 3 months. It lasted one week. The next $2 billion lasted a little longer, but not much.
