The Obama administration, and his far left constituency, have a huge number of "environmentalists", many of whom are really globalists. Everything has to be trendy, and green because of these large campaigns that consisted of misinformation, disinformation, and flat out lying. Critical thinking, and independent thinking need to happen instead of being trendy talking about how capitalism is evil, while waiting for your venti mocha-whatever with foam.
They attempt to indoctrinate our children to no longer think for themselves, or use the scientific method to look at a problem. Instead they are going to be told what is good, and bad by Al Gore, a man just loves the environment so very much, especially while admiring it flying on private planes using thousands of gallons of fuel.
Thankfully there is some sensibility in this world. England has ruled that Al Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth", a title which should have been "An Inconvenient Lie", cannot be shown to British school children due to 9 major lies.
It seems though that the fallacy of global warming, and the complete scam that is "green energy". If "green energy" was so much better, more attractive, more lucrative, then Shell, and Exxon, etc would be diverting all their resources to become Exxon-Solar , or Air-Shell, but they are not. The free market has already indicated that these are area's that people do NOT want to invest in. If we simply had true capitalism that would be the end of the debate.
People could continue to make new products and inventions, and they would continue to fail, and be critiqued, and worked on more. Eventually there is a good idea, and that idea is a service or a product. That widget is then exchanged for something else, or if nothing at the time is to be exchanged then money is exchanged, which should be gold, and silver but instead is paper money. Regardless, that is how the economy, and the world works if left alone.
The problem is we don't have capitalism in America, which happens to be the solution to our problems, not socialism or communism. We have crony capitalism.
Here's how the system works for those that don't understand that sensation you're feeling is being economically raped by the government. First we start with corrupt people, and couple that with the ability to print endless amounts of money, thanks to the treasonous Federal Reserve, and we're off to the races. Those in power simply give money to those they want.
Those with the power give money to a particular sector, for example green energy. We've already explained that the free market wants away from that sector, but that doesn't matter. The loans are given out to these companies anyway, such as $535 million of taxpayer funds given to a company Solynda in the form of a guaranteed loan.
Obama appears to additionally have personal connections with the Solyndra company, as one blogger pointed out, however, that's a smaller issue in this case. The problem is that the scam doesn't stop with giving political or personal buddies millions of taxpayer money. The problem isn't even that the Obama administration decided to push guaranteed loans on sectors the free market was screening "STAY AWAY".
This is just one case of crony capitalism. The initial cause for this article, which would not be known if the end of the article was not finished, was because of an item description I saw today while shopping online for a camera.

The real problem is the manipulation of Keynesian Economics, supply and demand. The Government gives our subsides, paid for with taxpayer money, and gives it to companies that are "green". This allows them to spend the money on "being green", and be able to sell their products at usually lower prices, in turn driving their competitors out of business.
The companies getting the subsidies are using them to run their green operations. When the money stops coming, they are going to collapse, because the market has shown us that "green energy" isn't viable. When this happens we'll have to bail them out, for debt that isn't ours, for causes we didn't create. However, by then the competition will all have been eliminated, there will be a monopoly, we will pay to keep the government running, because the government runs everything now through it's subsidies. Ultimately getting us to the more, and more understood word of an eco-fascist.
It's about time we start getting some "MADE IN THE USA" designations on our products, not if an item is green.
