Well, after pissing away half a billion of our hard earned money, Solyndra, the Messiah's poster child for green jobs has filed bankruptcy. Not only do they add 1,000 more people to the unemployment lines but they were the proud recipients of government guaranteed loans to the tune of over $500MM. Guess who gets to pay that money back? That's right......the productive of society that actually pay federal income taxes. And Solyndra is not alone. Two other major solar companies likewise have bitten the dust.

So instead of the markets deciding who wins and who loses, the federal government wastes hundreds of millions of our hard earned dollars on ventures that were doomed to failure from the outset. And how do I know that? Because there are hundreds of billions of dollars of investment capital desperately searching for a home and if Solyndra actually had a business model or a product worth a flip they would have crawled all over themselves to get in on the action. But the fact is that the markets saw a loser from the outset. And even with the half billion in loans no investor would touch the business.

One thing you can be sure of is that the people who started Solyndra are Oblamer supporters and probably were campaign cash bundlers. Such is the Dem way..........use our hard earned money to pay back their supporters (ala unions).
