Evergreen Solar panel production moving to China

Evergreen Solar, which opened its giant photovoltaic panels manufacturing plant last year with $23 millions in state grants, is moving the panel assembly jobs there to China.

[Wow]

Hey you guys won, no more noise, thanks for all the jobs you help create

I believe this was bound to happen no matter what. The state was giving out free (well not to taxpayers) money. They knew all along they were going to go offshore. But why not take the money to give their executives big $$$ and bonuses? Shame on Bacon Hill for allowing our money to be gamed.

So thoughtfull of Feldt to publish our losing jobs in the news paper before informing his employees.
"It's killing me that I'm going to China"
Sounds to me like he could care less about us!
