Abstract

The Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save Act of 2009 (CARS) was supposed to stimulate the American economy with incentives to trade in old gas-guzzling cars for new, more efficient ones. Three economists examine the impact of this program that came to be called “Cash for Clunkers” on the St. Charles County, Missouri, economy.
