Solar has 143,000 jobs in the US currently and probably 190k or more in 2016. I like the position that Vivint CEO is taking in the interview and it’s great to have solar in the Term Sheet. That being said, I would like solar to be more political because playing the “market condition” is silly. No industry in America sits back and watches Congress do whatever they think is best without lobbying their best interest. On the other hand, some industry players tend to take a back seat on some political discussions.
