5. This is a failed 'green energy' company. Going nowhere.

What Happened to the Green New Deal?

Once exalted as the poster child for exemplifying Obama's vision of "green-collar jobs at the hands of a resurgence in American innovation," Serious Energy shriveled into a new economy shell reminiscent of Enron, chucking aside manufacturing for software, finance and hedging. The venture capital taps were also running dry. Serious raised less than $20 million of its 2010 goal of $56 million, and less than $3 million of a $33 million round in 2011.

I wish the workers good luck but millions have been lost from private investors over the years not to mention massive tax breaks from the govt. And this company now has less than 100 employees. Not exactly world changing.

A money pit. Maybe these workers would be better off somewhere else.
