I was just wondering about something related to two seemingly unrelated news stories we have seen lately. The first story was about the Solyndra debacle. The second was about it not being illegal for our lawmakers to invest in companies based on their knowledge of pending legislation. An insider trading kinda thing.

That being said, the thing I was wondering about was this. If Solyndra was such a great investment according to Obama and Chu, why aren't we reading stories about our lawmakers losing their asses investing in it? Another thing, why couldn't they raise money from private investors unless they had a guarantee of being paid back first if / when solyndra collapsed?

Ya know if you and I worked an arrangement like this we would be in jail.
