"When you believe your profit driven business should get government funds to improve (or in the case of Tesla, keep it open) your profit driven business, your hand is in the cookie jar."

In other words, the purist libertarian perspective.

Well sorry, dude, because I an in favor of what the US has historically done and has been shown to work in the real world, not some theoretical fantasy, either libertarian OR Marxist.

Like I stated earlier, a tool and a socialist with his hand in the pot. You can believe “it works in the real world” but 90 times out of 100, it fails, and is just a sunk cost, and 9 out of 100 the only winner is the owner(s) with maybe 1 out of 100 (eg: railroads) benefiting the entire country - although it’s likely they would have occurred anyway, albeit later when costs were lower from tech improvements.
