“His $11 Billion in taxes last year alone covered any subsidies Tesla buyers got in the past, with over $9 Billion to spare. Next?”
So robbing a bank is fine, as long as one pays it back several years later.
Gocha!
Except there was no “robbery” done, outside the fevered imagination of crazy Biden voters like you.
The EV subsidies were passed by congress and perfectly legal. When did perfectly legal subsidies become “robbery”?
And while we are talking about robbery, GM got a massive $50 Billion bailout in 2008, out of which they were unable to pay back a staggering $11 Billion! Now that is the real robbery.
Why don't you go whine about that?
U.S. government says it lost $11.2 billion on GM bailout

You are a moron. Musk didn’t run anyone. Your elected representatives passed a law signed by your elected leader that provided equally to any and all who make electric vehicles an incentive for people to buy the first generation of them. To wit that only the first 200,000 of any individual manufacturer vehicles qualify for this first of kind subsidy. Every car manufacturer can get this credit. If you want to get worked up about subsidies get worked up over the 23+ billion per year in subsidy to the oil industry they are the single largest recipient of federal subsidy in the nation that’s a fact documented by the GAO office check it out some time. $7500 in income tax write down on the first 200,000 vehicles is chump change to what a single oil company get in a single year. Look up the real data before running off at the mouth with lies. Tesla also played back it’s loans early with interests every single penny. GM took 25+ billion and NEVER played a cent back where your outrage at them? Your are just a typical boomer luddite welcome to the 21st century boomer if you get many more years left you will see EVs dominate the market because they are superior in every way to last century technology. Hope the rona don’t boomer doomer you before you get to see that fact happen.
