Trump could help this by an EO of the that executive production order saying that new vehicles are essential to usa for security reasons...Musk is kinda a nut case but a genius when it comes to space!
LEX
Musk is setting the state up. He will crush them, daring them to arrest him.
All i know is creating companies and work for other people is hard.
Politicians if they never created jobs are cluless and are only relying on falty science.
We are all already exposed this wack a mole staying at home routine is boring
I have to admit, I was never a fan of this guy until now. He’s striking a blow against tyranny. Go, Elon!
I think go carts are insane. But hey his making it work it so no issues technology is hard.
Space work I will love to work with him on that we need to get onto ‘red’ planet. Blue one is not doing well.
Overall creating work for people , and wanting to be the one arrested is noble .
I really don’t know what to think about the Musk man
But I suspect he is doing this for the wrong reasons ($$$)
I just wish some of the business in my area would grow a pair and also just open.
As we get more info it does not seem that this is as big a deal as was originally thought.
Something to think about, an article I came across.
I’ve partially complied when I thought it was about my health and of
course I was concerned for my family with this unknown virus “invading” our country. When I found out the number of COVID deaths were being exaggerated for monetary purposes, the lightbulb went on.
This will make you think...
When the State tells you it’s safe to go to Home Depot to buy a sponge but dangerous to go and buy a flower, it’s NOT about your health.
When the State shuts down millions of private businesses but doesn’t lay off a single government employee, it’s NOT about your health.
When the State bans dentists because its unsafe, but deems abortion
Visit is safe, it’s NOT about your health.
When the State prevents you from buying cucumber seeds because it’s dangerous, but allows in person lottery ticket and alcohol sales, it’s NOT about your health.
When the State bans all salons and barbershops when they’re educated and maintained on sanitation, but the Governor can get his stage make up done, and hair done for 5 TV appearances a week, it’s NOT about your health.
When the state puts you IN a jail cell for walking in a park with your
child because it’s too dangerous but lets criminals OUT of jail cells
for their health- It’s NOT about YOUR health!
When the state tells you it’s too dangerous to get treated by a doctor
Of chiropractic or physical therapy treatments yet deems a liquor store essential- It’s NOT about your health!
When the State lets you go to the grocery store or hardware store but is demanding mail-in voting, ITS NOT ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.
I will further add when the State says you can’t meet at Church but can meet in mass at Walmart, Target, Costco ..etc...It’s NOT about your health.
WAKE UP PEOPLE — If you think this is all about your health you’re
mistaken!
Copy and pasted. I take no credit, but 100% agree.
This should give you an idea and a taste what it it would be like living in an outright socialistic dictator ship. Times of duress can bring out some of the best as well as some of the worst in people as well as show who you can trust and rely on and who you can not. Place certain people in a position of power and before long it goes to their head and it does not take long until they come up with decisions which either reflect their ignorance or stupidity or are based on their insatiable desire to impose their will and control their fellow mans behavior.
The current coronavirus crisis or epidemic is rife with plenty of examples, a few of hem given in this article. One of my favorites is Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan rules is, that during this virus epidemic or dilemma, whatever name suits you, power boating is out but any other type of boating is permissible. It either shows plain ignorance or her true socialistic convictions have come to light and to the surface.
“Now I have the power and by God I am going to show them”
History is full of such examples and if taken to the extremes we end up with places like North Korea and anything in between. This is another reason why the founders of this Great Nation came up with the Second Amendment, as most of them were great judges of human behavior.
As Thomas Jefferson so eloquently quoted
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants”.
So Musk is a Republican now!
Can’t afford his cars but I do support him.
I appreciate him in this but it does illustrate the rich and powerful can defy way more easily and with much more support.
A conservative is a former liberal who has been mugged!
Dem’s do not know what the trouble lays before them from PO’d American’s.
Is he setting himself up for a massive civil suit? It’s almost inevitable that some employees will become infected. Will they have a case?
A lot of small business owners are either Democrats or controlled by their nervous wives
I hope the Dems are pounded back to the stone age.
No one is forcing them to work there.... What about all the people who work in grocery stores, drug stores, etc, these last 2 months?.... Can they sue if they get sick?
