Our Monday blogger, Jake, has work duties that will take him away from Gov Gab until September. In his absence, we’re alternating between “Your Turn” weeks, where we’ll ask a question to spotlight your knowledge about government resources, and posts from guest bloggers across the government.
Today's Question: What impresses you about your government?
Last Monday, the Car Allowance Rebate System (AKA Cash for Clunkers) program ended. My husband and I seriously considered turning in our minivan - it has126,000 miles on it. We decided against it (hard to find a vehicle that seats 7 and gets more than 20 MPG), but during the research I was again pleasantly surprised at all the great information the government puts together in easy-to-use formats. For instance, I was able to compare cars side-by-side for fuel economy and safety. How cool! What has surprised you about what the government does?
