    Detroit News

    A Michigan-based company slated to produce lithium-ion polymer batteries for electric vehicles has instead kept production overseas, has failed to meet job targets outlined in a $150 million grant from the federal government, and has been reimbursed by the government for $842,000 in wasted work time, according to a U.S. Department of Energy Special Report released Wednesday.

    The DOE says Holland, Mich.-based LG Chem Michigan misused part of a $150 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds and has decided not to shift production from its plant in South Korea to Michigan. It painted a stark picture of wasted U.S. federal dollars.

    "Until the shift in production takes place or some alternative use for the plant is developed, U.S. taxpayers will receive little direct benefit from a plant for which they provided up to half of the funding," the report said.

    If we didn't do it, Wisconsin ... or maybe Bopal India would have done it!!

    This was the list of choices they had

    • pass the bill and give taxpayer money away and create a million zillion jobs.
    • Change the bill, and while we are debating it a hundred Billion in investment will instead go to Wisconsin, cause those guys will snatch up all the winners.
    • Vote no, and foreign countries will get all the business.

    Weren't these good choices?  Ohhh soooo confused!!
