I've been thinking more about this program, and my question is if it works so well in this industry, then why not incorporate the program in other industries?

I work construction and have received a HUGE slowdown in work as of the last few months. Why not destroy perfectly good homes and commercial buildings (ie unefficient in the heating/cooling/insulating department) and allow the government to subsidize 1/4 of the cost of a new one like in the cash for clunkers program.

Wouldn't this really stimulate the economy as well? It would sure help out my industry...
