There's a Tesla “dealership” located in a mall near me that I visit very frequently (it's a great place to “power walk”).Most of the times I've passed by it there hasn't been a *single* customer to be seen (people inside are easily spotted from outside).Occasionally I see one or two customers and once I saw about a half dozen people inside.I think Tesla is just one huge scam by a disciple of algore himself.

Back to the pneumatic tube for shooting people between LA and San Fran.

I bet the guys on Fast and Loud, for example, could design and build a swap out machine for 100K or so.

Then some entrepreneur gas station around Victorville along the I-15 between Vegas and LA would install one and advertise. The publicity would be worth it. Plus he could install solar for recharge.

Let the market work it out.

The subsidies collected on the basis of fraud should be clawed back. If that sinks Tesla's boat, it is a perfectly fair consequence. Ditto for the rest of the green fraud brigade.

I made the following post almost exactly a year ago on FR when the ObamoFascistMedia exploded with enthusiasm when Musk announced his amazing batter swap stations that were going to sweep the nation:

” Drivers who opt for the swap will have to eventually return to the station to get their original battery back, and they’ll have to pay for the service once again.

If they don’t return, they can pay to have the 1,000-pound battery shipped back to the service center nearest their home, or they can keep the new battery they’ve had installed”

Riiiiiiiiiight.

So, in other words, this whole cockamamie battery-swapping scheme is nothing but a sick joke and a ridiculous publicity stunt.

At a half mil per station, I can only assume that Elon is expecting uncle sugar daddy Obama to “loan” him the money to build the stations.
