ANOTHER STUPID INNACURATE OBAMA BOAST: brags about $299 MILLION in Stimulus funds given to a "GREEN" company that has since downsized their American plant built a factory in Hungary

Johnson Controls received $299 million in taxpayer-funded stimulus dollars to make electric batteries and open up two factories in the U.S.   
But instead of opening two American factories, as they expected, Johnson Controls only opened one, according to a report last year from the Washington Post,  and that plant only operates at half-capacity. 
But never fear, Johnson Controls just announced last month that they will build a second plant after all...  in Kecskemet, Hungary. That's from a story in the Milwaukee Business Journal. 
And it gets better. Demand hasn't been what they expected so Johnson Controls  is going to layoff an unspecified number of workers at their corporate headquarters according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.  
Oh, and it was just reported earlier this month by Kevin Kistler that the battery plant where Slagle works in Springfield Township was hit with a hefty fine from OSHA for exposing employees to an unreasonable amount of lead. 
RTWT!
