Teslas Elon Musk struck back at Robert Murray, chief executive of Murray Energy Corp., after the latter called Tesla a fraud in an interview. In a tweet, Musk said the real fraud was denying climate science and went on to add that the subsidies Murray spoke against in his interview with CNBC were pennies on the dollar, unlike what Big Coal gets from the government.
The reason Murray lashed out at Tesla, which was in an interview with CNBC, was because the company, according to him, had failed to generate a profit despite the subsidies it receives, but he went on to defend coal vehemently:
By the way, you could close down every coal-fired plant in the United States today, and you would not affect the temperature of the earth at all, he said.

What does that Bond-movie super villain Musk think generates the electricity his cars run (and burst into flames) on?
I can’t wait for the day when “alternative” fraud energy is exposed and we all use the reliable clean fossil fuels.
“Elon Musk Strikes Back At Big Coal”
So daring of him. That’ll show mean old Big Coal.
Musk sells things.
He is no more of a tech type than is Gates.
He has had one good attribute in that his hires are good engineers.
But I would keep him away from all but the most elementary mChunery.
Elon the subsidy puppy.... can’t say the other word...
Oops, that is “machinery”.
Coal is over. When natural gas is depleted, the government will have to ration energy. Then they control who gets it.
Interesting, for a guy who taxpayer government money to build coal powered cars.
Coal isn’t over... we have well over a thousand years worth. The psychosis will pass in a few decades.
This assclown would be nothing without our tax dollars1
Thorium, Uranium, Tritium
100,000 year supply. By then mining outer space is unlimited.
If Al Gore lived in a reasonable sized house and did not fly around in his fuel guzzling private jet, in other words if he led by example, I might be more inclined to believe.
Elon Musk believes Aliens from a far off galaxy control his every thought and action... That’s all you need to know about the dude... Classic symptoms of schizophrenia. He’s rich though (on others investments) so they call it “eccentric” instead.
His fantastical concepts will be end up costing his investors everything they have and end in Musk going on the trip of a lifetime... to the nearest federal penitentiary where he can view Mars through the safety of his prison cell window.
Tic, tock, tic, tock... Musk’s planned escape to Mars will be shattered within the next four or five years when it becomes clearer and clearer that he’s a fraud, if not within a shorter amount of time. This whole bonkers Alien thingy may offer him some sort of insanity defence though. We’ll see how that pans out.
May I suggest Musk take Glenn Beck with him on his voyage to Mars. These two snake oil salesmen would get along just fine.
And we wave good bye to them forever as they cast off to space, never to return.
Elon Musk—The man who got rich off of my tax dollars.
You may have the coal but the government is going to ban it.
