USA GOVERNMENT PONZI SCHEME: California issues IOU's backed by Bank of America, Wells Fargo and Chase banks. Of whom have accepted over $200,000,000,000 of taxpayers money. Meaning that the Government is HEDGING its bets that taxpayers have no problem paying for corporate, personal and Industrial bailouts....All while proposing a $4,ooo,ooo,ooo,ooo budget that will increase unemployment (Cap and Trade included) to potentially 20%. Creating Government dependence. If this proposal were implemented by a brokerage house, they would be serving 150 years along side Bernie. America is being raped. Hopefully Justice will be served to these hostile, usurpative moneychangers as it was "Made Off". They are all One in the Same

I have lived in South Carolina my entire life and have been extremely proud of my State in every possible way - THAT IS, UNTIL NOW-- with this idiot Sanford -- "Apologizing / saying you're sorry, etc." is just not enough! The majority of South Carolinians (according to polls reported each day on the news) are sick and tired of this person and the shame + the awful national attention he has brought upon our State (it isn't his state anyway - he's from Florida and I didn't vote for him in the first place!) Each day, more and more South Carolinians are growing together in "poll numbers" demanding that he resign! Why didn't he have the decency to resign at the press conference when all this came out??? Well, that is a stupid question for me to even ask because he is probably just loving all this attention - some people, as bad as it may be, love attention, even if it's bad attention!

Pundip is always babbling incoherently about solar. Here’s a heartwarming solar story:
OBAMA'S SOLAR PANELS WILL TAKE 110 YEARS TO PAY FOR THEMSEVES!
(but the panels will only last 20-25 years)

Here's something you won't hear about from the Obamedia--
The solar panels that Barack Obama and Joe Biden inspected before signing the Generational Theft Act in Denver, Colorado will take 110 years to pay for themselves.

Those solar panels that Barack Obama bragged about in Denver will take until 2118 to pay for themselves. These same panels are expected to last 20-25 years.
The Independence Institute reported, via LGF:


Before signing the $787 billion stimulus package into law on Feburary 17, 2009, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden toured an array of solar panels on top of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. The photo-op allowed the President to once again extol the virtues of the coming “green” economy.

According to the Denver Post's article on the event, “The sun generates enough energy on the museum rooftop to power about 30 homes.” However, that claim cannot be verified at this time, and in fact, seems to be belied by the scant information provided by the museum and other sources.[1] Laura Holtman, Public Relations Manager for the Museum said in an email, “Because the array generates less than 5 percent of the Museum's power, [the purchased energy] is not a particularly large bill.”

The Independence Institute asked the Denver Museum of Science and Nature to provide certain statistical information regarding the now-famous solar array. Specifically, the Institute asked for:

1 ) Two years worth of electric bills prior to the installation of the solar array,
2 ) All electric bills following the completion of the installation.

The Museum denied those requests.

The solar array is not owned by the Museum, however. It is owned by Hybrid Energy Group, LLC. HEG owns the solar array, sells the electricity to the Museum, and receives tax incentives from the state and federal governments, while also receiving “rebates” from Xcel Energy. The rebates are funded by a surcharge collected on the monthly bill of every Colorado Xcel customer.

A 2008 article in the Denver Business Journal sheds further light on the subject. The article notes the total price of the solar array was $720,000. And Dave Noel, VP of operations and chief technology officer for the Museum, was quoted as saying, “We looked at first installing [the solar array] ourselves, and without any of the incentive programs, it was a 110-year payout.” Noel went on to say that the Museum did not purchase the solar array because it did not “make sense financially.”

Additionally, most solar panels have an expected life-span of 20 to 25 years.
Why is this not surprising?

Gee, if it takes 110 years to pay back, but panels only last 20-25 years, they'll have to replace the panels for the system to keep working, but then that drives the cost up more, and the payback further out. So essentially the system will NEVER pay for itself, and taxpayers will have to keep subsidizing it. Is this changing of panels the Change We Can Believe In? Or will we wise up and see Obama for the lying sack of crap that he always has been. YES WE CAN, AND WILL!

And Truth, heres another, anyone care to check with the City of Durango, Colorado? They had implemented Solar to run the city, the cost was so high they switched back to the coal generated electricity.

Sanford has a hot story but no book deal. How long can that last?

I lost my job a few months ago, as many of us are now. I was devastated, how was I going to support my family? I read about the eBay Success System in Entrepreneur magazine and they even had a link ( http://tr.im/EbaySuccessSystem ) to get a free kit explaining how to make money that way. I found out that over 720,000 Americans are making a living on EBAY right now. I am one of them now. Now you can do that too. I can tell you that I'm already making as much money as I did on my job and I'm working less time than I used to spend commuting. Beat the economic depression and get your free kit today. http://tr.im/EbaySuccessSystem

There's a difference between public trust and private trust, isn't there? The question is: Should they go hand-in hand? The man and his mission are, it seems for Mark, separate. I think everyone's being a too harsh on Mark Sanford. All is fair in love and well, ah, politics.
