Seems to be going just swimmingly. A little too swimmingly, in fact. Our lords and masters expected the program as funded to last through October... it lasted a few days. They didn't anticipate the demand, so they had to give it another $2billion.
As far as government programs go, this is tiny. After hearing about the issues they've had with this, the paperwork the buyers have to fill out, the reimbursement problems the dealers have been facing, I'm so very confident they'll be able to handle healthcare just fine... Don't worry, they'll accurately forecast the demand for that, I'm sure...
I feel like Tea Leoni's character in Deep Impact, standing on a beach, helplessly watching a huge tsunami gathering force and heading my way.

the cash for clunkers thing is well named- in fact, I think any laws they enact should be required to have the word "clunker" in its title somewhere. Truth in advertising, and whatnot. What a road of clap!
FYI Kevin - It is your Dad's first day home from the hospital and he was on the computer looking for a new car to take advantage of the clunker bill.
Good Lord - his Jeep's worth more than $4500!
