Hi Revella, um...you mean like clash for clunkers? So, if I had an old appliance that used way too much energy, they'd pay me something for buying a brand new energy efficient one? LOL. Haven't heard that one. But hey, I never know from one day to the next what I'll be hearing, so you never know. 
Have a nice weekend.

lol, isn't that the truth
I guess the media is waiting for official notice before they can discuss it, they throw you a bone then go silent, Im assuming its going to work much like you mentioned, you will get credit to trade in your old appliances for energy star appliances..your guess is as good as mine. Someones trying to keep the ball rolling

Lot's of the car dealership's are already complaining because they are not getting the money from the voucher's. So I hate to think of what it will be like if they do it for appliacnces. There is one dealership already complaining he said according to what he had heard it may take the government up to 2 year's to pay off the voucher's. If you ask me the cash for clunker's, and even a cash for appliances deal would just mean it's more regular people going into debt again.

Same thing I think about the cash for cars--the gov't is trying to get us deeper into debt. Nobody gets any money, just paper credits and the people are deeper into debt that a lot of them won't be able to pay.
If this type of "spend your way out of debt" continues, their plan to destroy this country will succeed sooner than they probably estimated.

I'm starting to wonder if he's been schooled by Robert Mugabe the way he's spending..
[i]Since 1998 Mugabe's policies have elicited domestic and international condemnation. Mugabe's government supported the Southern African Development Community's intervention in the Second Congo War; expropriated thousands of white-owned farms; printed hundreds of trillions of Zimbabwean dollars, causing hyperinflation; and harassed and intimidated such political opponents as the Movement for Democratic Change.As government profligacy, inflation and unemployment increased, disgruntled citizens took to the streets in protest. To placate the discontented, Mugabe in 1997 agreed to pay large gratuities and pensions to "war veterans" who had fought for him in the liberation struggle. He also brought to a head a simmering feud with Zimbabwe's whites by declaring that white-owned farms would be taken by the state without compensation. The resulting downward spiral in Zimbabwe's economy[8] has been accompanied by oil and food shortages, massive internal displacement and emigration.
