JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Mississippi taxpayers may have only an empty Senatobia building and some solar panel equipment to show for nearly $26 million in loans provided to Twin Creeks Technologies.

The California-based solar technology firm is liquidating, and a company that bought Twin Creeks' assets does not intend to take over its agreement with Mississippi. The contract called for Twin Creeks to invest at least $132 million and create at least 500 jobs.

Luckily the Food Stamp President won’t be running for re-election. There will be no more kickbacks from all the “green energy” companies for his re-election campaign because they will all be bankrupt.

If Mississingissiippisppi loans me 26 million I’ll close up shop too. And I promise to do everything I can to pay it back, really.

Mississippi apparently does better investing in companies from Japan rather than Kalipornia.
