You’re the Republican voter. I think it’s pathetic that you can’t name a single Republican policy you support.

I can name a Republican policy! Taking jobs away from veterans and their families!

The project would bring “more than $1 billion of private investment into economically hard-hit military communities,” according to SolarCity CEO Lyndon Rive.

SolarCity has said it would work to employ American veterans and family members for the 750 people needed to complete the project, showing that green jobs do indeed exist.
…
The conditional commitment for the so-called SolarStrong project was issued days after the Solyndra bankruptcy. It was a piece of good news after a drumbeat of bad developments in the weekend after the Solyndra story broke. Since then, however, the resulting investigation has added a slew of new documentation requirements, making it impossible for SolarCity to meet the deadlines imposed.

Three Republicans - Cliff Stearns, Ed Whitfield and Fred Upton - are responsible. Is this that “government regulation destroys private investment and jobs” stuff I keep hearing about? :)
