How sad that politics trumps economic development. Ausra should publicize loudly that they are building their plant in another state like Nevada because the State of California was forcing them to hire unionized employees. The unions are the first to scream bloody murder when companies close and make products oversees, but they're apparently not willing to see any open unless it's on their terms. Why do you think Obama is so pro "green"? It's the unions talking (and funding his campaign). Politicians always talk about how they want to create jobs, but I guess non-union jobs don’t count!

Where else would they get their campaign monies? Why do the cater to only 19% of the labor workforce in the State of California? If the unions control the solar market then they control the cost. Oh but wait, that's seems to be working so well in Cali where they can't even agree on a budget due in part to the unions. Let's level the playing field so that all of the workers in the state have an equal and fair chance to compete for work not based on union pressure tactics.
