And, guess what, were any businesses worth the effort they could do if by lining up this amazing resource called “investors” to take on the risk instead of taxpayers. Amazing concept.

Are you trying to pretend that Tesla isn't publicly traded and has no investors?

TSLA Share price
06/29/2010 - $17.00 (initial offering)
02/08/2013 - $39.24 (price more than doubled in 2.5 years)
03/07/2014 - $246.21 (price sextuples in 1 year)
06/23/2017 - $383.45 (peak... price up more than 50% in 3 years, still impressive)
05/18/2018 - $276.82 (still up 1500% in under 8 years, and multiple stock splits... 1 share in 2010 is 58 shares today.)

Facts matter

Are you trying to pretend THAT doesn’t happen?
