wanna bet how much SunPower aRnie had in his “blind trust”?
It is a signal of overweening

Two words: tax credits
Wager placed to collect more US taxpayer subsidies than it costs to continue to maintain operations in the United States.
Expect the French to cut costs to the bone as soon as politically expedient, which means moving out of California if California won’t increase subsidies to exceed the relative cost of business in the state.
With Total’s FOUR SOLID DECADES OF ABSOLUTE CORRUPTION OF THE POLITICAL, JUDICIAL, ECONOMIC, FOREIGN AND MILITARY AFFAIRS OF FRANCE, CANADA, and FRANCOPHONE AFRICA, ITS OBSCENE THEY ARE ALLOWED TO INVEST IN ANYTHING SUBSIDIZED BY US TAXPAYERS.
Welcome to the new world order, where stealing foreign taxpayers’ funds to produce a green front company will excuse mass murder across Africa and the billions of Francs of corruption amongst the current leadership and board of directors of TotalFinaElf.
Immelt must be fuming he couldn’t get his hands on another cheap source of American taxpayers subsidies.
Good Deal! I bought 600 shares of Cypress Semiconductor back in the day (Sun Powers former parent) and now I have 600 Shares of Sun Power Class B stock and it’s up 36%!! Wohoo!!
