I dont know what else to say. Its a matter of pushing a wanted public policy majority of people are interested in. Hell its okay, we can sit in this septic tank called Earth then for many generations & my future generations will look like the Oblongs, no big deal.
1. Demand for solar panels is DOWN. (nobody uses it beyond the minimum required to qualify for the big Obama-corporate tax holiday- see GE)
2. China makes them CHEAPER. (like everything else since the Clinton's opened free-trade with their communist bank-rollers- so green jobs WILL NEVER exist in th US in a marketedly measurable way- EVER.)
If green energy worked, it would be working.
waste of money, IMO. But as long as its not your money, why not throw it away?
I'm not into wasting anyone's time or money and actually, some of the money and time that goes into developing positive solutions to a better future is my time and money because I physically and financially support green efforts when ever I can with my time and money. 10% of a little is not a lot, but it's what I give.
Speaking of solar, here is something that seems to be working:
"Solyndra’s loan process was initiated by the Bush administration and that many key investors were Republicans."
So who ran off with $$$ and screwed us yet again? hmmmmmmmm.... read it and weep.
"the United States still exported $1.9 billion of solar products last year and actually has a trade surplus in solar with China."
OMFG we have a trade surplus with China!!!!!!!! thats awful to our economy....
pfft.
Not sure what you are "hmmmmmmmmmmmm"in' about... haha.
If you read deeper than Ezra Klein (not hard to do) you would probably not be braggin' on what you think is a fact... I'm not trying to embarrass you, just sayin... ah.. nevermind.
Not convinced the board can read deeper than Ezra Klein.
It basic. I guess maybe I shouldn't in a Fox News initiated thread.
C'mon this isnt the first time that a government loan and program funds misappropriated and a business dissolved. It just happens to be the biggest loan at 500 million suprisingly. Think I was born yesterday?
All I can do is heave a big sigh. The term "world wide suicide" comes to mind. Maybe we humans have this innate belief that we should destroy ourselves so the planet can go back to doing what it does best- go through its natural cycles without any interference from a mammal who's brain got too big for its own good. If you believe this, which generation do you want to have to suffer through being the last? Your kid's? Your grand kid's? Probably won't be ours, right, so we may as well pump all the oil we can and put as much CO2 into the atmosphere a we can and party all we want to because it won't be our problem. I'm going away now. Time to do something constructive. Sorry for my little tantrum. It's just the normal noise in my head- don't be bothered, by it.... :(
Edit: p.s. Sorry, Godfather. I truly believe you do not want your kids or grand kids to suffer and I believe you are a good, caring person. I just don't get your stance on this pipeline.
seriously. take the money that would be spent on the pipeline and invest it in solar panels or wind turbines. but that won't happen because the oil lobbyists won't let it happen.
Solyndra.
I see sheeple...
seriously? grow up. Solyndra was mishandled. I get that, don't call me a sheep because I support something like solar energy that has potential to pay for itself within 5 years.

Bush did it.
