Dept. Of Energy Official Can’t Answer Why Abound Solar Got Loan Despite Warnings
July 18, 2012
Department of Energy Official before the House Government Oversight and Reform Committee can’t answer Rep. Jordan’s questions on why Abound Solar got loan despite warnings before hand
Fitch gave dismal report of less than 50% chance of success twice prior approval.

Amonix: Another Obama-Subsidized Solar Company Fails
Here we go again.
Yet another example of the Obama White House’s failed attempt to pick winners and losers and doing so by gambling with our our tax dollars, this time to the tune of $6 million in tax credits and $15.6 in grant money from the U.S. Department of Energy.
This company, Amonix, is only 14 months old.
How in the world did it qualify for that kind of tax dollar windfall without any kind of track record?
Oh:
Nevada Sen. Harry Reid, U.S. Rep. Shelley Berkley, D-Nev., and Gov. Brian Sandoval were among the political leaders who lauded the company when it announced it would start making solar cells in the Golden Triangle Industrial Park.

Nestle blames biofuels for high food prices
BBC
The head of the world’s largest food producer believes high prices are due to the growing of crops for biofuels.”The time of cheap food prices is over,” says Nestle chairman Peter Brabeck-Letmathe. He is highly critical of the rise in the production of bio-diesel, saying this puts pressure on food supplies by using land and water that would otherwise be used to grow crops for human or animal consumption.”If no food was used for fuel, the prices would come down again – that is very clear,” he says.
There you go, Jeff . I got this waste of taxpayer money out of my system for 1 whole day. Let private enterprise develop green energy.

When you guys talk to me you better show respect.
Just remember that Italian Mike…he sleeps with the fishes.
Boy Betty is a huge Rush fan. I listen to him in the car Betty. He can say things that are a little over the top. When you are on the radio 15 hours a week you have some time to fill.
