White House Announces $6 Billion to Promote Clean Energy – in Asia

The White House announced the federal government will spend $6 billion over four years for a “sustainable energy future” plan with Asian countries that involves loaning tax dollars to other countries to increase their purchasing power for U.S. technology, services and equipment.

“Recognizing that energy and the environment are among the most pressing issues confronting our region, President Obama, in partnership with Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei and President of the Republic of Indonesia Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, today proposed the U.S.-Asia Pacific Comprehensive Partnership for a Sustainable Energy Future,” the White House announced Tuesday as Obama visits Asian Pacific countries.



Ok - the article says Asia, but it's really Muslim.


The White House announcement goes on to say that, “The United States will provide up to $6 billion to support the partnership.” Most of that will come from the U.S. Export-Import Bank, which will launch a $5 billion export credit financing program to certain Asian countries over the next four years “to increase access to American technology, services and equipment to implement energy infrastructure.”


I guess this means we are supposed to get the money back somehow.

What I see is money going from taxpayers - to Muslim/Asia, they will take some - to Obama friendly green energy companies to purchase equipment - then whatever is left will go to the Obama/DNC warchest in the name of donations.

We have money for this, right?
