It should be noted that in addition to directly subsidizing the manufacturer they are still giving away state money and federal tax credits for installing solar. With all that they still went belly up. The same has happened to the ethanol industry and windmills aren’t far behind. A waste of money and our taxes.
Yea the windmills are being pushed by some very big money wanting to use our money. As for solar unless someone is ready to do some serious sacrificing and conservation in their power consumption they are in for some disappointment. Especially if they are installing solar to replace utility services. BTW I've also noticed government seems to be the biggest buyer of panels these days.
