Cool for Musk, now he can pay back the many billions of Taxpayer funds that he used to get Tesla off the ground.

“Pay back” what?
All electric car tax subsidies/tax refunds were available to every car maker.
It’s not Musk’s fault if Ford GM etc did not take advantage of all this 20 years ago.
Trouble with you lefties is you sit on your butts and watch someone work a massive 19 hours a day for decades, flirt with bankruptcy over and over again, then the moment he becomes extremely rich, you turn up and demand that he hand over his money.

I do know that his company paid back the 365 million dollar Department of Energy loan they got in 2010. They paid it back in full in 2013, ten years earlier than they had to.

MUSK PAID BACK his loans some years ago-—with ALL the interest————EARLY.

He's already done that a hundred-fold in my opinion.

Think about all the jobs and wealth that Musk's various enterprises have provided. Best use of taxpayer funds ever.

I'd rather have my tax dollars go to people like Musk who can actually create things than to have it go to millions of welfare bums, illegal aliens, and dysfunctional schools that don't teach people anything.
