Plant that got $150M in taxpayer money to make Volt batteries furloughs workers
Fox News ^ | October 08, 2012 | Perry Chiaramonte

President Obama touted it in 2010 as evidence "manufacturing jobs are coming back to the United States,” but two years later, a Michigan hybrid battery plant built with $150 million in taxpayer funds is putting workers on furlough before a single battery has been produced.

50 years worth of fossil fuel support FAILED. Romney was right!

The fact that people lost their jobs is tragic.
The fact that once again this green energy thing is a miserable failure is a laugh riot.
 
Everyone knows coal powered vehicles is the wave of the future. Good ole clean coal...



HAHAHA owned again Lakhota.....why all the strawmen? Uh who brought up coal? YOU did, because you cant defend the waste of money that is green energy......

Green energy is great, but it's not worth it yet....it takes time.....so you're gonna have to wait

As much as it eats away at your insides like battery acid, know this..Fossil fuels are not going anywhere.
None of this green energy stuff is worth it to the private sector and as we've seen, government, because nobody can make it work and at best break even.
Given time and the absence of government trying to pick winners and losers, the private sector will find a viable and inexpensive alternative to fossil fuels to power the nation.

You know, a coal powered car is an electric car.....
 
So, how is THIS a lie, for dupes only? LOL

Volts are selling just fine....even with no dupes buying, the brainwashed un-American a-holes.

How many VOLTS do you own?

Sorry, I forgot hypocrites won't answer the questions, because they don't support the car either.

$202.5 million of tax payer money, spent on 100 year old technology, to build a car of the future, only a freaking commiecrat would think this is money well spent. If you use their logic, $1 million per job is a bargin. Like I've said before, Maobama is the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on the American people.

You know Obama is offering a 7,000 dollar tax credit if you buy one though?

Clunkers rebate, home buying credit of 10 grand and now a credit of 7 grand to buy a car again. Full circle.

Yep. Just as they have for most things in this country.

The Volt sucks and they have closed down production. Seems the only dupes buying the damned thing were those buying for the Govt. We taxpayers were forced to buy these things for all Govt work.

Bet they will all be replaced, with a substantial loss to we the taxpayer, when the next POTUS takes over.
