After receiving some $70 million in federal loans, Abound Solar, a Colorado based firm that was developing thin film solar panels, has announced it will follow Solyndra, into bankruptcy.

12 green energy companies ;after collectively being approved for more than $6.5 billion in federal assistance are on the cusp. 5 have filed for bankruptcy . Ener1, maker of batteries that were supposed to power Obama's electric car fleet, filed for bankruptcy in January.

There is the difference between my support for scientific research ,and my opposition against the government trying to "fundamentally " change the market through subsidies.

A bad year for entrepreneurs EH?

A predictable waste of taxpayer money.

Ah well at least it wasn't wasted on war

Wars end... socialist economic policies last until the last dime is sqeezed out of the coffers.

Tom you wouldn't know a socialist economic policy if it smacked you up the side of the head with a wet fish, you want to try socialist economic policy try carbon tax

Yeah I understand that the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change just smacked your heads real good with it's new expanded methane emission standards . You have to shell out another $30 /annual per household just to compensate for Red Julia's lying brain farts .

Fact is Tom no one knows what the cost will be because we haven't seen the fallout yet, Red Caviar has been true to her lying form and we have have the Carbon Tax she said her government would not introduce, but here is the best part, this was done as a deal with the Greens to form government and now Labor has realised what a threat the Greens are and is moving to destroy them electorally at the next election. It's all a mute point though, because Labor won't exist after the next election
