Obama's Green Dream Drain

Via Divided States.com

Long List of Failed Obama Green Energy & Solar Companies in the Billions as self-appointed green business genius throws away your tax dollars.

President Obama’s Energy Secretary, Steven Chu, infamously said, “We have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe.”
President Obama’s Energy Secretary, Steven Chu who infamously said, “We have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe.”
Below is a list of energy companies backed by President Barack Obama and funded by the American people that have failed. President Obama has gone to great lengths to fund green companies with tax payer money but unfortunately, not one of these companies has succeeded.
President Obama is also doubling down on funding more of the same kinds of companies but unfortunately these types of technologies are far from being affordable and working properly.  Most Americans now believe that at a time when the economy is in such dire straits, areas of proven methods of readily available and affordable energy should be invested in.
Most ideologues, such as President Obama, understand this fact however are willing to ignore it to satisfy the small number of people who hate oil and gas companies.   As of now there is no technology or renewable energy on the planet that can lift and keep an airplane in the air or fuel a cargo ship and move across the vast ocean-ways.
Most Americans are asking, “Can the United States of America REALLY afford FOUR MORE YEARS of this type of rigid ideology?

  • It may actually be that the American people do long for a green future.  But they are not going to get it from this administration and this President.  Their only hope is stand up and vote for a man with a documented history of commercial and scientific success in alternate energy sources...
