Comment:

Keep the Founder for 15 years

The weakness of the cash-in US$

no early stage Venture capital financing

but Mergers activity $15bn

U.S. Finace has to learn to keep the manufacturing

Cleantech, not to sell it outside the country

Can't expect President Obama to finance for

ever Gov. GRANTS. Just the bailout banking

industry should come up with some cashback

for early state cleantech US to be kept

by the Founder, not to be sold by the Investor

after 5 Years. Not everyone is Mr. Musk Tesla

who runs for US manufacturing, Warren Buffet

invests in BYD China electric cars, great working

together for next genearation.
