Most subsidized company in US history.

Beats Union Pacific several times over.




Really? Look up the history of Standard Oil and the US auto and oil industry.



Here's an eye-opener for you. I challenge you to find Tesla in the list.

If you were smart you sold all your stock in that company the days them and NASA teamed up and even provided an animation to prove they were the 'real deal'. Electric motors and the controllers are an industry that hasn't began yet. In Canada we would be wise to develop a charging system that can be taken along and when powered by an 'engine' you still end up getting over 100mpg. A grain farm run by electric motors would be ready for bots to run the show and the 'owners' would be sitting in a board-room. Merchants from town would be the manpower as fixing that stuff is not a DYI kind of affair. If that is your thing, a homesteader path would be better.

That already exists. It is called a hybrid.

If Tesla succeeds then climate change is an actual thing and your kid will have to have a gender reassignment and marry a muslim refugee

You have so much skin in the game, as they say

Buying Bre-X at a dime on the IPO and selling at approx $200 (prior to cease-trade) would have been a far superior move.


That said, no interest in buying a business model can't survive without subsidies.
