Another Obama solar initiative bites the dust, but not after stealing millions from individuals, companies and the US government.

This solar project turned into the largest Ponzi scheme in Eastern California history.

It was reported this week that the owners of a massive solar company turned ponzi scheme were indicted this week in Eastern California.


quote:

The owners of DC Solar, a Benicia-based company, pleaded guilty today to charges related to a billion dollar Ponzi scheme— the biggest criminal fraud scheme in the history of the Eastern District of California. The government’s investigation has resulted in the largest criminal forfeiture in the history of the District with over $120 million in assets forfeited that will go to victims, and has returned $500 million to the United States Treasury, with more to come, U.S. Attorney McGregor W. Scott announced.


quote:

This is not the first solar company that originated during the Obama Administration and benefited from government subsidies in the process. Solar startup Solyndra went bankrupt and swindled the US government out of more than a half a billion dollars as well.

Was there an Obama era taxpayer back green energy startup that wasn’t a slush fund/ponzi scheme/or outright plain old fashioned graft?

Good question.

I guess when you inorganically force unmarketable technology down peoples’ throats via political kickbacks, those companies, facing inevitable failure, don’t have an issue bending the rules all over again to stay afloat.

Owners Plead Guilty


Plead guilty and no testimony will be heard == less likely to commit Arkancide.

So far they were batting 1.000.

Don't expect anyone on the left to be upset about this. When you don't contribute, it feels good to watch your enemie's money stolen.

They weren’t Ponzi schemes.

They were Democrat party campaign fund schemes.

Push a ton of federal money into friendly businesses that turn around and push it back into PACs, foundations and candidates campaign coffers.
