FACT: the only reason they have anything closely resembling profits is because the state of kalifornia gives them counttless millions in carbon credits every year that they in turn sell to other companies, and keep the $$$$$$$$.
If that isn't a scam I don't know what is.
I can't even get a straight answer as to how many millions they get per year scott free. 20? 50? 100 million? The story changes depending on what you read or who you talk to. But it's more than enough to keep building and getting more incentives.
This is not about the technology. It's about holding a gun to our heads, making all of us put money in his pocket for NOTHING!

But just keep kissing his shoes, now that steve jobs is gone people probably need another faux-hero.



I saw that steve jobs movie the other day BTW, what a POS he really was.

Never did a damn thing in his life but **** up other people's lives and take credit for other people's hard work while he treated them, like ****.
He was a genius too.
You're right, Steve Jobs was a genius. He changed countless lives for the better. His products were revolutionary and set the gold standard. We all now benefit with general overall improvement in other products.

The same applies to Musk. If he is being subsidized by CA taxpayers, in the future you will thank him for the simple fact that the timeline to quality, electric powered vehicles with great quality, performance and range was brought to market much quicker than would have occurred otherwise. This has a trickle down effect for all future vehicles.

You are just angry at everyone, aren't ya, Sammy?
