It will come as no surprise to some but the bankruptcy court hearing for Solyndra just threw up all over any hopes that our taxpayer-funded loans to this solar sinkhole will be recovered:

*SOLYNDRA HAS ABOUT $71 MILLION IN NET DISTRIBUTABLE ASSETS

*SOLYNDRA LENDERS AHEAD OF GOVERNMENT OWED ABOUT $77 MILLION

So it looks like a $0 recovery for us - US Government: Picking Losers One Sector At A Time.
