The bankruptcies and layoffs continue to pile up. Hey, it’s not his money that is being used to help out his campaign donors. It’s OUR tax dollars.
Amonix Inc. is tied to Steve Westly, an Obama bundler who is also tied to Solyndra and Tesla Motors, which received over $1 billion ($535 million/$465 million) in taxpayer-backed guaranteed loans. Westly was also considered for a position to be Obama’s Energy Secretary. Instead, Obama made him an “energy adviser.” If you add up all the money Obama has given Westly and other bundlers, its in the billions.
Obama For Bundlers, Bundlers For Obama. That’s been the pattern and I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.
FLASHBACK TO AUGUST 2010…
LAS VEGAS – President Obama on Friday tried to reassure unemployed Nevada workers that help is on the way.
“Nevada, I know we’ve been through tough times, and I can’t promise you the difficult days are all behind us,” the president said. “I can’t promise you there won’t be more times to come. But, I can promise you this. We are headed in the right direction. We are moving forward. We’re not going to move backwards.”
The president moved to policy issues, using a Nevada business as an example of job creation. “A solar power company called Amonix received a roughly $6 million tax credit for a new facility they’re building in the Las Vegas area,” President Obama said.
FLASH FORWARD TO THE PRESENT…
From GlobalWarming.org:
Earlier this week, Stimulus beneficiary Evergreen Energy bit the dust. Then, Ener1, a manufacturer of batteries for electric vehicles and recipient of Stimulus largesse, filed for bankruptcy. And today, the Las Vegas Sun reports that Amonix, Inc., a manufacturer of solar panels that received $5.9 million from the Porkulus, will cut two-thirds of its workforce, about 200 employees, only seven months after opening a factory in Nevada.
