More of obama's Green jobs debacle.

Car Company Gets U.S. Loan, Builds Cars In Finland - ABC News

Quote:
With the approval of the Obama administration, an electric car company that received a $529 million federal government loan guarantee is assembling its first line of cars in Finland, saying it could not find a facility in the United States capable of doing the work.

Vice President Joseph Biden heralded the Energy Department's $529 million loan to the start-up electric car company called Fisker as a bright new path to thousands of American manufacturing jobs.
Another BET with taxpayer money that goes belly up.

Of course, you know who is involved with these companies of course......big time obama bundlers and fund raisers.

Obama's green debacle - the gift that will give a whole lot in 2012.

Henrik Fisker said the U.S. money so far has been spent on engineering and design work that stayed in the U.S., not on the 500 manufacturing jobs that went to a rural Finnish firm, Valmet Automotive.

Ooooops!

You will go to any extreme to support the idiot in chief, won't you?

You do realize that the designers and engineers are probably 1%rs, don't you?

Couldn't we use another 500 manufacturing jobs?

That would give obama a total of 500 jobs created with the stimulus bill!

Oooooooops!

What ooops? The manufacturing JOBS were supposed to stay here.

I guess you're ok with funding jobs for the Finnish on the taxpayers dime.
