Have you noticed that all these green projects seem to be collapsing like a gigantic green hole after sucking in all the money the politicians can throw at them? You know why Spain is on the hook and on the verge of collapsing? The politicians placed all their money on the "green" economy under the false premise that it would create jobs. It cost two jobs for every one created due to the heavy subsidies and taxes it took to make it work. And....it doesn't work.
All the billions spent on green energy and there are very few jobs created. Depending upon the project, the green jobs from the stimulus have amounted to a hundred thousand to over half a million to create. Now they are falling by the wayside as Americans say no more throwing money down the hole in the outhouse.
Nobody wants to buy the Chevy Volt because you can't go anywhere. I would love for a reporter to stick a mike in Yogi Berra's face and ask him if he would like to have a Chevy Volt. His answer would be priceless. Soon there will be hearings on a possible coverup of the serious problems with the Volt. Us taxpayers footed the R&D on the Volt, and when they finally rolled off the production lines, few people were interested. To get people to buy them, we (us taxpayers) have to back GM in a program where they give buyers a $7,500 tax credit to buy one.
Does it seem coincedental to only me that all the green energy companies that are going bankrupt are big financial donors of Obama? The biggest green company in the world that is still profitable is Obama's buddy Jeffery Immelt who runs GE. He is in charge of business development in America even though he is shipping all GE's manufacturing to China. Founder of GE Thomas Edison, has had his invention of the light bulb canned, and GE gets all the government contracts to refit the whole third world with the poisonous compact flourescent bulbs. Amazing the energy giant GE which is into all kinds of solar (made in China) panels, CFB (made in China), wind turbines (made in China) for wind farms is still making enough healthy profit to funnel lots of dough the the Obama political machine (pay to play---made in Chicago). Oh......I forgot! They made in excess of five billion last year, much of it government contracts, but for some reason....they did not pay one red cent in taxes. Oops...maybe I should have said blue cent, that's the color the media calls Democrats because Republican red is the color of communism. Or better yet...green cent. That's the color communists hide behind these days.
