What a joke!
Elon depends on the government (subsidies, grants, tax breaks, tax credits, environmental credits, funding, contracts, laws,...) for the survival of his businesses.
He has actually explicitly said to end all electric car subsidies and that they are pointless and aren’t needed. Just a caveat there.
What he says and what he does are often entirely different.
So gullible.
lol, I just don’t fixate on the guy on the positive or negative like so many do, imo. Everyone does the same thing with Trump. He’s not a savior nor a fascist reincarnation of the devil. He’s mostly just a doofus and doesn’t fall in line with the general establishment. Elon is in a similar spot, but i think there’s no arguing the guy is clearly competent and “autistic focused” on building stuff.
So Elon is nothing like Milton Friedman.
I… I literally never said he was. In any way actually.
By the way, the doofus is the next President of the United Sates who controls, the military, intelligence, executive, legislative, and judicial.
It’s always a doofus, a lunatic, or a mass murderer. So nothing new
I find it’s best to spend 30mins fixating on him every morning, that way you get really good at it.
🤣🤣 that’s a good rule of thumb
I mean sure you can always say he is being dishonest, but I’m just pointing it out. We will see what happens in this regard. But generally I don’t fault someone for taking tax credits and assistance. I certainly take everything I can and I would hope you do. But I also advocate the end of all subsidies, and rather than tax credits, the income tax should be removed completely. Artificial manipulation of market demand is stupid and generally destructive.
That's because Tesla cannot get them anymore.
However, ask him if he wants to end government mandating carbon and emissions penalties and requirements globally.
He makes billions of of the nonsense carbon credit market that wouldn't exist without government agencies like the EPA.
In fact, I believe carbon credit are like 25%+ of Tesla's income.
Carbon credits are the establishment’s shitcoin scam. There are way too many companies running on that disaster.
Literally. Just sub out the credit for a token. 😂😂😂
In fact, I think there actually may be a carbon or green shitcoin for that. Lol
I like that Tesla is scamming the government into printing more fiat. If more companies and individuals did the same, we could bring this charade to a swift conclusion.
