Here Comes Solyndra 2.0: Obama To Hire 75,000 Solar Workers
What could possibly go wrong?
Clearly having not learned their lesson from 'interfering' in free markets (and all the deflation-creating over-supplying, crony-capitalizing, taxpayer money-wasting malinvestment that goes with it), NBC News reports, The White House has announced a goal to train 75,000 workers in the solar industry by 2020, many of them veterans. In a sentence only President Obama could utter, he explains "these are good-paying jobs that are helping folks enter the middle-class." Climate 'fixed', folks 'fixed', veterans 'fixed' middle-class-economics 'fixed'... and we are sure it will be unequivocally good for America (until trade wars pick up once again).
As NBC News reports,
The White House has announced a goal to train 75,000 workers in the solar industry by 2020, many of them veterans.
"These are good-paying jobs that are helping folks enter the middle-class," President Barack Obama said on Friday at Hill Air Force Base in Utah. The plan will expand on the Department of Energy SunShot Initiative's Solar Instructor Training Network currently running at more than 400 community colleges.
The White House also announced the Solar Ready Vets program aimed at helping veterans transition into the solar industry. A joint program between the Department of Defense and the DOE, it's currently being launched at 10 military bases across the country, including Hill Air Force Base and Camp Pendleton in California.
Obama touted the new goal as a way to bolster the economy and help meet the White House's climate change goals, which call for greenhouse gas emissions to be cut 26 percent to 28 percent below 2005 levels by 2025. The solar industry is creating jobs at a rate of 10 times faster than the overall economy, the White House said. Obama announced the new program the same day the March jobs report was released showing the most sluggish U.S. employment growth since December 2013.

Obama should train 75,000 workers to read ZeroHedge instead.
And with Affirmative Action, created by Jews, no white goyim gentlemen need apply.
The problem with solar is not the installation of the panels, but th installation of all the other stuff you need in order to tie it into you home or business. Then add in the maintenance once you get it going. Nothing this mechanically complex has ever become mainstream.
What I would like to see is a 'black box' that I plug into my regular wall outlet. I then can connect the solar panel to it. Then plug a high-electrical consumption appliance into the black box. If sun and battery allow, The appliance pulls from solar. If not, it pulls from my house power. No switches, no (little) maintenance, and no big costs trying to get my whole house onto solar.
Prepare for silver rally 2.0.
Some folks got jobs, some folks don't.
He really is clinically insane. The vets (I am one) already have the GI Bill and can get tuition paid at any college. They can get a real degree, not a "certificate" from a "solar-power" scam school. Look as to who is really going to get the funds.
