Who's going to fund the buy-back programs?

Why the tire companies of course. No! Wait! Then they'd raise the price of
their product and we, the consumer, would end up paying for it.

Yeah, and they might start making tires that last longer and run better too,
so they can avoid the expensive recycling tax on cheap worn-out tires.
