Yea, that "green" energy thing we were told wa the future of America may be true. Another "green" energy comapny goes bankrupt
Just like the US is doing
A Tennessee company called Mountain Plaza Inc. that received $424,000 in a stimulus fund grant has gone completely broke.
The grant was approved by both the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) for the construction of electrical hookups at a truck stop in Dandridge, TN, “so that truckers wouldn’t have to burn diesel fuel while resting,” reports Fox News Insider (http://foxnewsinsider.com/2011/10/19/blog-truck-stop-that-received-over-400000-in-stimulus-funds-goes-bankrupt/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+FoxNewsInsider+%28Fox+News+In sider%29).
In other words, thoughts of clean energy and environmental friendly trucks stops most likely influenced the awarding of the grant.
But wait! It gets better.
The company qualified for the taxpayer-funded stimulus grant even after it had filed for bankruptcy. Yes, bankruptcy.
