The real lesson of Solyndra: sensible subsidies work
by Larry BeahanSolyndra, the failed solar panel manufacturer, is a name that fossil fuel and nuclear energy enthusiasts have kept in the headlines. The Obama administration lost $500 million by guaranteeing Solyndraβs loans as part of the $700 billion, 200...
And try to bring this massive hoax up to libtard and they don't even remember it. It's sickening. Same with fast a furious, ordering our flag lowered haitii because it was offensive . ...the list goes on. I truly do hope that Obama and Co are convicted and rot in prison for the rest of their lives. And not some cush one for execs and the like. Prison prison
Speaking of homobama, don't forget about A123 Systems and many others. My buddy got hired at A123 when the hype was climbing like a rocket. They offered him bonuses and stock options before the giant rug pull.
They got a $249MM grant in 2009 and pissed through more than half by 2012 (homobama's reelection year). π Probably just a coincidence. π
And plenty of time for them and their pals to feather their own nests. That was a fraudulent scheme from the day it was first thought up. It wouldn't be difficult for investigators and forensic accountants to figure out where the money went.
Also remember the toxic waste dump solyndra left in calirado. Their senior execs getting millions in bonuses just before they folded.
Fucking criminals. Ring-led by the halfrican.

The total international funding pledged specifically for South Africa's green/just energy transition (as of late 2025) stands at approximately $13β13.7 billion under the flagship Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP), including contributions from multilateral development banks.This is primarily concessional loans, investments, guarantees, and limited grants (~$764 million in grants), with over $2.5 billion already disbursed/invested.Additionally, the separate (but partially overlapping) EU/Team Europe Global Gateway investment package totals nearly β¬12 billion (~$13 billion USD), with ~β¬8.7 billion directly focused on the just energy transition (renewables, green hydrogen, critical minerals).
"Just energy"? What the heck is that? (I know, it has to do with "climate justice". I second your π and add a π€‘ π
I wonder how much money they stole in the Cash for Clunkers program too.
I think about this a lot. First time I saw the money laundering process.
A lot of money needs to be clawed back.
