Bob, how many of these companies are dependent on other subsidies and mandates to be successful?

Why did you answer a question with a question?

The claimed 5 billion profit is like Bill Clinton's claim of a budget surplus. It's all projections. A "single anonymous source". Gee, I wonder who that source could be haha. 5 billion profit may sound cool until you take into account the fact our government accumulates around 3.5 billion dollars of new debt PER DAY. Science will never unlock the secrets of the liberal mind. They're the most gullible people on earth.

the loans and guarantees will earn at least $5 billion over 20 years or so, according to a Bloomberg article citing a single anonymous source.

Remember Solyndra? Those loans are making money - The Washington Post

Perhaps as this Teacher describes why answering a question with a question is useful...

Jesus often asked return questions to those who posed questions to him. His response to the question of paying taxes to Ceasar was a brilliant strategy to refute the Pharisee’s attempt to trap him into a statement that would give them grounds to accuse him of blasphemy. Jesus often used this strategy in his teaching to make the hearers think and evaluate their position in relation to God. Questions are a way of developing critical thinking skills and I used them a lot in my teaching of fifth and sixth graders.
