CORRECTION |
Last week we reported that in
order to encourage more
responsible use of our
resources, the Bush
administration will be
phasing out the $25,000
tax write-off for
purchasing a Hummer,
which gets 10-12 miles
per gallon, while leaving
in place the $2,000 tax
credit for buying a
hybrid vehicle, which
gets over 50 mpg. In fact,
the Bush administration
is phasing out the $2,000
credit for buying a
hybrid, while leaving in
place the $25,000
write-off for buying a
Hummer. We regret the
error. |
