This from CBS News (which no one considers "Conservative"):
CBS Reports 12 Clean Energy Companies Are Having Trouble After Collectively Being Approved For More Than $6.5 Billion In Federal Assistance, While 5 Have Declared For Bankruptcy. “CBS News counted 12 clean energy companies that are having trouble after collectively being approved for more than $6.5 billion in federal assistance. Five have filed for bankruptcy: The junk bond-rated Beacon, Evergreen Solar, SpectraWatt, AES' subsidiary Eastern Energy and Solyndra.” (Sharyl Attkisson, CBS News, 1/13/12)
Now then, if all "alternate energy" failures over the last 4 years were included the total would be nearly ONE TRILLION DOLLARS! All this while coal, oil, & electricity have been providing service AND making a profit! So Liberals should think twice about question the Obamanomics of taxpayer funded "green energy"!!!
