It should be a crime to keep a car for that long (tongue firmly in cheek ;-) It doesn't matter how perfectly the car runs, don't you realize how many high paying no-education-required production line jobs that you have destroyed by keeping that car all those years? It should be a crime to make a car that reliable. Heck it should be a crime to have the production line that turn out reliable cars efficiently, instead of workshops where jalopies are put together by hand slowly. Quick, go quickly to the house of the most productive person living in your neighborhood, tie him up so at least two people will have to do his job, that's job creation. While there, rob him to pay people to dig holes in the ground with spoons and then fill holes back up. That way, money will start flowing again in our economy.
Such is the essence of Krugman's great Keynesian economic insight.
