It should surprise no one that many of the companies receiving “stimulus” money fail.

These companies have to be too risky, or unsuccessful to attract private financing. Otherwise, how would the “stimulus” money “create or save jobs”? They also have to be promising enough to merit the “investment” of public money.

That can only work, where government analysts have “discovered” little bits of gold, that the private sector dumped in the tailings pond. Most of what glitters there are pyrites & that is what the government analysts are most likely to “discover”.

Put heavy tariffs on China and things will level out.

The problem isn’t merely that a couple of companies that took stimulus money failed. Failure is a normal part of any risky endeavor.

The REAL issue is that there are NO success stories to counterbalance the failures. None. Zero, zip, zilch, nada.

If there were they’d be in our face 24/7, courtesy of the Obama Press Corps.

No, the best result they can claim from this taxpayer rape is that “not every green-tech company we funded has gone bankrupt yet”. Lame.

If the GOP is skillful at communicating and exploiting this, it will be a torpedo below Barky’s waterline.

Thanks for locating and posting this article summarizing the fraudulent businesses fed by corrupt government officials. The interesting aspect will be uncovering the amount of taxpayer funds that were returned by "businesses" to the Democratic party and/or the White House.

If a viable ‘green’ product or service comes along, the principles should have no trouble in raising private capitol to fund it. As it is now, Dear Leader is just throwing giant piles of taxpayers money away.

Looks like a Blue State mfg. bailout to me.

Don't hear about too many "Stimulus Companies" in Wyoming or Alabama.

Solar is a waste of money. Call a Solar company and get a quote. Then figure out how long you’ll have to live to pay it off. I did and the cost was over $30K. No way was I going for that, if with a refund.

People who would benefit from stupid moves like jacking up tariffs to protect domestic union workers?

Like my grandmother used to say, “It all comes out in the laundry” .

We knew this was coming, but we all thought they could hide it past 2012.

American taxpayers, workers, and their children have been robbed by Hussein Obama.

As I understand it, Obama was a student under Cloward and Piven. I bet he aced that class.
