An electric car battery company reportedly has laid off 125 employees since receiving $390 million in government subsidies, but is still handing out big pay raises to company executives.

A123 systems, which was touted as a stimulus "success story" by former Gov. Jennifer Granholm, D-Mich., had a net loss of $172 million through the first three quarters of 2011, according to the Washington Examiner's "Beltway Confidential" blog, citing a report from the Michigan-based Mackinac Center for Public Policy.

A123's primary customer, Fisker Automotive, is also struggling financially. "Yet, this month A123’s Compensation Committee approved a $30,000 raise for [Chief Financial Officer David] Prystash just days after Fisker Automotive announced the U.S. Energy Department had cut off what was left of its $528.7 million loan it had previously received.”

This month has seen significant pay boosts
for other A123 executives, as well, including vice presidents Robert Johnson and Jason Forcier.

The raises were reported by the company in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, according to the Mackinac report.

“It looks highly suspicious,” Paul Chesser, associate fellow for the National Legal & Policy Center, told Mackinac. “It looks like they are trying to pad their top people's wallets in case something really bad happens.”

Nothing like some bad news to put a little spring in a Republican's step.

;)

But hey, whatever happened to the GOP dogma to the effect that whatever businesses pay their executives is their own business? Bad dogma, huh?
 
Yes for many of these Republican nut jobs.......Their insane hate of the President trumps any good news for America......I wonder how many will hang themselves when President Obama is re-elected?
 
Let's see how that works. Unemployment going to 20% would be bad news for Obama. That would be good news for the country? What country you talking about?

The GOP flock has been trained to think of America as only consisting of the GOP flock. They speak of "taking back our country" as if it solely belongs to them, and as if it's been hijacked by foreigners if we have a Dem prez. Very strange.

Sadly, they won't do that. Instead they will double down on their sabotage campaign from Day 1 of the second Obama term.
 
You are probably correct...I imagine we will hear the insane non-sense of armed rebellion.....Crazy Militia talk...Maybe even dreams of a Military take over ...or threats against the President and family.....
 
I appreciate your candor in saying that you welcome bad news.

I do. Other than our troops suffering loss, I welcome any bad news at this point in time. I'd like to see unemployment go to 10-15%; I'd like to see gas go to $5 a gal; I'd like to see more Obama-funded companies go under; I'd love to see GM go belly up and the UAW busted all to hell; I'd like to see Union leadership personnel put in prison; I'd like to see Eric Holder go to jail and lose his home and car and have to live on Obama food stamps; I hope the USSC overturns Obamacare.

I'd like to see the US credit rating downgraded again. I'd like to see Michelle Obama get hives from a $400 lobster lunch, and rip out a $5,000 gown with her big ass; I'd like to see the heating and A/C go out in the First Family living quarters; I'd like to see Obama burned in effigy all over the Middle East; I hope not one single job is created until this president is run out of office; I hope Obama's entire cabinet is caught in legal and personal scandals, and are forced to resign their positions.

I hope obama has so much stress on him between now and November that he looks like Uncle Remus; I really hope it gets so bad, and that he is so tormented that he starts snorting cocain again and decides to abandon his reelection bid.

Remember, any bad news, that's ANY bad news for Obama is good news for the long term health of the country.
 
It would be good news for the United States because it would help hasten the departure of the dirty SOB.

It does.
 
But if a bunch of US Military got blown away...I mean a few thousand at once...Completely wasted...Imagine how you could spin that against Obama....See a few thousand dead US Military could be a good thing...Don't you agree?

Rarely do we see an Obama hater so freely admit that he wants to see the nation suffer as long as it harms Obama. It's hard to believe that you are being serious, but, sadly, I think you accurately represent most Republicans. Party over country.
 
Yep....

An electric car battery company reportedly has laid off 125 employees since receiving $390 million in government subsidies, but is still handing out big pay raises to company executives.

and kickbacks no doubt....not to mention Solyndra and a couple of others
that went belly up after their windfalls....we're talkin' Chicago politics you know?

(Just kiddin'...rather than them disussin' the split on the sale of his Senate seat, looks like they were just havin' some barbecue, beer, talkin' sex an Obama was braggin' again.)

Most sound like they would welcome a terrorist attack on America....Cheering wildly so they could blame President Obama......I call those types Traitors....But that just me....I support America no matter who is the President
 
It's Obama's fault the nation is suffering. I figure a few more months of suffering should help many of the Obama nut-lickers see the error of their ways and convince them to vote for an American President.
 
I'll sweeten the pot for you. I also hope that once the piece of shit is out of office, he is tormented for the rest of his life with the humiliation and disgrace of knowing that he was the greatest failure and the sorriest human being who was ever elected to national office in this country.

I hope he ends up doing odd jobs just to make a living; I hope his staple diet consists of vienna Sausages and soda crackers; If he bets on the 3 horse, I hope the 2 horse wins; I hope he invests his last dime in Solyndra; I hope his wife leaves him and takes the kids with her, and has a restraining order put on him to keep him away; I hope he loses his hair, gets fat and marries a crack-ho.
