Musk has gambled heavily on China. He has situated Tesla plants in China and hopes to show a profit and reward his investors by selling huge numbers of EVs in China. sorry but ultimately he will go bankrupt. any manufacturing, software or battery developments or patents held by Tesla will be pirated and put in the hands of Chinese EV manufacturers. They will underprice him. Also any profit he manages to make from Chinese sales will never reach his mostly American shareholders. The fact is unless forced by Democrat laws and regulations, most buyers shun EVs and prefer cars with internal combustion engine. The truth be told there can never be enough “green electricity” to power a car fleet the size of America’s. The whole concept is flawed and bogus.However be ready to give up your personal vehicle if the Democrats take power. They hate the personal freedom you have to travelwith your car.

BTW Musk himself is a very flawed drug using character. IMHO he has a death wish and will crash his companies.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Musk smoked pot one time on a podcast. He looked foolish and admitted that he had no idea how to smoke and that he doesn’t use pot.

Like everyone, I’m sure he has flaws. But drug use isn’t one of them. So you should be careful to not slander when calling out other’s ‘flaws’.

I love my Dodge Challenger but electric vehicles are coming far, fast. I would think about getting one in the future. You call him a drug using suicidal character. what kind of drugs and what amounts? And what do you base his death wish on? You throw those things around without backing them up.

they need some backup. Saying your company stock price is too high is odd and he has said other odd things. Those aren’t suicidal comments and they do not prove drug use by any means

I don’t think he has a death wish for his companies. I think he has a death wish for himself...on Mars.

He has said for a while now that his greatest wish is to among those who go to Mars and establish the first human colony there. He knows it’ll be a one-way trip, but that’s what he wants. He’s going to use his companies (Tesla, The Boring Company, SpaceX, etc.) to fund his (he hopes eventual) trip to Mars.
