Poor Saint Elon. His PT Barnum show is coming to an end.

Looks like Musk is all bark and no bite.

His Obama era government subsidies must be running out.

Office Space is a bigtime lefty movie, I’d LOVE to see the reality of free-market economics hit Tesla for what it’s worth.

“Office Space is a bigtime lefty movie”

How is that? I don’t recall any political nonsense in that movie. Moreover, if you ever worked at a dead end company or, even worse, one that was failing and run by complete (liberal) crony idiots, you’d find that Office Space nailed it :-).

Now, having said that, if I worked there, I would have had my resume out all over the place ... I’d never check out the way the main character did ... but I wouldn’t call the film “liberal” at all.

Tesla has proved as nothing more than a laundering site for Gore’s money-grabbing scheme of carbon-tax credits

How much of the company value is due to federal and state tax monies. Tesla has lived large, Elon has feasted on taxpayer money. I don’t want Tesla to fail, but let them earn their success.
