Default 45 New Jobs

The Solar thing just got a little more interesting.......REALLY!

The Tonopah Solar company in Harry Reid'sNevada is getting a $737 million loan from Obama's DOE.

The project will produce a 110 megawatt power system and employ 45 permanent workers.

That's costing us just $16 million per job.

One of the investment partners in this endeavor is Pacific Corporate Group (PCG).

The PCG executive director is Ron Pelosi who is the brother to Nancy 's husband.

In all fairness, that price tag icludes constrution of the plant.

Here's one from the local area. No plant required, just a lotta wasted money.
