I now want to punch a liberal in the face.
Barack’s cronies need more tens of billions from the US Treasury. ISIS needs some fighter jets.
He sucks in the veterans with this scam.
Why not train 100,000? Or a million? Or 25 million? After all, the home energy auditor training program worked so well as part of porkulus.
Showing people where the plug is on a solar panel should be helpful.
He may actually believe SOME of this claptrap he pushes. Still does not make him a good man, or worthy of respect. He really is a commie-lite.
Meaning he will dole these jobs out to innercity black males, a no show imaginary job and the check is in the mail
The article is just a bit misleading.
The plan isn’t to train actual solar technicians, the goal is to create a cadre of community organizers to teach “solar instructors”, whatever the hell that means.
It appears to be a way of funneling money to community colleges and “tech schools” via useless programs for which students will receive government backed tuition loans or grants. The Velvet Jones Community College for Solar Training would provide certificates for attendance in exchange for Obama Bucks, all on the up and up and in accordance with low expectation “course work”.
See DOE site:

Here’s a graphic to show the scale of the network across the various regions.
There’s also a nifty organization pyramid graphic that shows nothing but cadre members. Nice work if you can get it.
So the primary beneficiaries will well paid deadwood at the top and the politicians who will use these newly minted government solar experts to set solar industry regulations, assist congress in crafting crony capitalism outlays, set up and control changes to building codes compliance and enforcement.
What a deal!
I guess he and his minions are planning on still occupying the White House in 2020.
All I know is, is that whoever takes over after this rake leaves office, is going to have a big mess to clean up or cover up, whichever.
being paid to clean solar panels decreases the cost efficiency of panels that increasingly become coated with dirt
Real purpose: turning military personnel into crony capitalism leftists.
At least these guys have dumped that phony baloney rationale of the impossible to verify or track, "jobs SAVED" mantra they used in Obama's first term.
Socialist and communists are experts at creating confusing euphemisms to fool the low information voters, as in, "you're doing better than the numbers indicate."
Nowadays, the Regime has the real deal.
Re holes in the roof: LOL, but I’ve been thinking along similar lines. It seems to me that the right system is a metal roof with standardized mounting brackets, properly spaced. Have there been frequent complaints of leaking with current installations? It seems they would be very hard to fix.
Some guy came to my door and dropped of info on solar. It said as long as there are no curling shingles, they can install solar panels.
Let’s see, the average roof lasts 20 years, solar cells have a 25 year lifespan, the break even point on solar is usually close to 35 years, oh, and where I live, the solar radiation charts show that on a 1-10 scale (10 best) we are a 4 for UV efficiency.
Sure dude, let’s go for it.
Nobody mentions that solar cells need to be clean to work at their peak. I’m not going on my roof once a week to wash the windows.
As the communists have always known, it doesn’t work until the last people that remember our heyday are gone. For the time being we are just silenced/ignored.
I work with blacks that for a decade or two had lived middle-class lives, and now they are frustrated/depressed as they are cutting costs like everyone else. The new cars and annual cruises are gone, and they seem to know as much as we do that they won’t be coming back in the foreseeable future. The few that hung Obama pictures when he was elected have long since taken them down...
a bunch of new gub'mint workers to administrate, commie groups getting the money, some token vets "trained". The program will fail but still be funded.
