Sept. 29 (Bloomberg) -- It isn’t hard to predict how the
controversy over defunct solar-panel maker Solyndra LLC will
end. Congressional Republicans will in due course issue a final
report decrying crony capitalism and demanding an end to the
federal program of loan guarantees to alternative energy
companies.
Democrats will respond with a dissent, concluding that no
rules were broken or even bent, but proposing, just in case, the
addition of a new layer of expensive bureaucratic overseers atop
the program.
