And then he tried to use them as an illustration of success!<br /><br />He has a mind like a springless bear trap.<br /><br />How did he overlook another Obama-backed company, Ener1 which went into bankruptcy protection late last week, despite the $118 million grant its battery-making subsidiary got from the Energy Dept. As the CEO put it, the company suffered a lack of demand, thanks to lower-than-hoped-for electric car sales (600 in January a big "big gas guzzler" sales month).<br /><br />Or how about In 2009, when SpectraWatt secured a $500,000 grant from the DOE and then failed?<br /><br />How many major failures does it take to balance one questionable and miniscule "success?"<br /><br />We need an individual mandate for solar panels and cars...no?Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09693381971064363612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632224842501413538.post-46110398747890452402012-03-29T21:47:36.095-04:002012-03-29T21:47:36.095-04:00Obama certainly didn't create conditions for s...Obama certainly didn't create conditions for students to work at places like Solyndra when he scrapped DC's school voucher system, casting children into DC's failed public school system.<br /><br />So, because a little company like Astrowatt has not failed -- yet -- we should just forget about ALL the other failures of the Obama administration, all the millions of dollars he has poured down the drain? Typical 16-year-old logic.<br /><br />Forget about the half-billion wasted on Solyndra.<br /><br />The Obama administration awarded $43 million in conditional loan guarantees from the Department of Energy to Beacon Power in June 2009. Now it’s bankrupt.<br /><br />Ah, but the $1.5 million Department of Energy grant to Astrowatt makes up for that.<br /><br />Loveland, Colorado-based Abound Solar, the lucky winner of a $400 million federal loan guarantee from the Obama administration, has laid off 70 percent of its employees and has frozen plans to build a new factory in Indiana. Abound is ALSO a thin-film solar module-maker <br /><br />But hey, judging by Astrowatt's success (so far), no doubt Abound will come up smelling like roses.<br /><br />And then there's A123 Systems, which makes lithium-ion batteries for all those electric cars that nobody is buying. They received received $390.1 million in federal and state subsidies — the company has laid off 125 employees and had a net loss of $172 million through the first three quarters of 2011.<br /><br />But hey, ASTROWATT!<br /><br />Let's talk about Fisker Automotive, which was supposed to buy all those batteries. They received $193 million in Obama money and have yet to make a single car.<br /><br />And while we're talking about cars, Obama has increased the subsidy for buying a Chevy Volt from $7,500 to $10,000. Considering that only wealthy people can afford to buy this thing in the first place, isn't that a tax cut for the rich? And sales are still so dismal that Chevy has had to suspend production and lay off workers. <br /><br />ASTROWATT, YOU GO GIRL!<br /><br />But hey, I'm just an ignorant right-winger. What do I know?<br /><br />Don't you have kids your own age to play with Ducky? Or do even your peers find you repugnant?Lone Rangerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278448546799358207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632224842501413538.post-1697427267621764962012-03-29T20:02:34.790-04:002012-03-29T20:02:34.790-04:00Joe, why not have some of your ignorant right wing...Joe, why not have some of your ignorant right wing readers investigate Astrowatt.<br /><br />The company received Federal money and has discovered a process that cuts the thickness of solar film by a factor of five.<br /><br />A company in Mississippi operating partially with government money has advanced the manufacturing process of thin film.<br /><br />In other words like a typical right winger you are either unwilling or unable to gather the whole story.<br /><br />Brenalexa, let me guess, your typical evening wear is the official NRA concealed carry hoodie, available from their website for $59.95.Ducky's herehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14608115001116619877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632224842501413538.post-21621097331717993252012-03-29T14:59:19.570-04:002012-03-29T14:59:19.570-04:00Brought to you courtesy of President “He Looks Lik...Brought to you courtesy of President “He Looks Like He Could Be My Son” Obama, the Orlando Sentinel, every moronic politician who thinks this case is about hoodies/Skittles/iced tea or racial profiling, and every other self-promoting race hustler who stuck his oily nose into this caseOne Man Speakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13981358404696562895noreply@blogger.com
