TESLA Electric Truck?

History shows otherwise... what starts in California seldom stays here.

There was a time when Oregon and Washington were very different politically but the 3 west coast states are very much in step...

Right up the coast into BC

Maybe California ought to become their own country, Spanish as their language. They're very much "different" from the rest of the country, especially SF, LA.
Rewarding low income people sounds like socialism to me.

Very much so and politicians will proudly say Capitalism is evil...

Many plans have come up for decades to split up California... some make sense and most have at least a 3 way split and some more.

I was really surprised at how similar Olympia WA is to Berkeley California and how similar SF is to Portland and Seattle...

Not really sure why but I never expected to see looters and protestors pelting our troops returning home though the port of Olympia to be greeted with rocks, bottles and such... I thought I was in Berkeley.

Have not seen many Electrics around Olympia and never a Tesla... mostly my sightings limited to hybrid SUV

Helping low income people with programs is socialism. Then comes the stage of only helping the rich with tax breaks and corporate welfare. The next stage is the loss of our democracy and communism.

And the subsidies to TESLA invite socialism to accelerate. TESLA should have to make it on their own.

Ocasio-Cortez just said the same thing! She was in the news recently opposing New York tax relief and subsidies for Amazon to entice them to move to NYC.

New York balked.

Amazon will now move to Manhattan anyway.

Her tweet today, with a cute photo:
"Won't you look at that: Amazon is coming to NYC anyway - *without* requiring the public to finance shady deals, helipad handouts for Jeff Bezos, & corporate giveaways. Maybe the ... admin should focus more on cutting public assistance to billionaires instead of poor families"


You're in good company.

Early version of the Tesla truck was a old Ford with cardboard duct taped to it? OR....is this the one they are going to use in the towing contest?

And Amazon is still getting a tax break, just not as big of a tax break, but they are not bringing 25,000 permanent jobs, 11,000 Union construction jobs and $24 Billion in projected tax revenue like was planned before (note that in order to receive the much-maligned $3 Billion in "subsidies" Amazon would have had to bring 25,000 jobs (most of them middle class or better) and do enough business to owe $24 Billion in tax revenue).
All that in Queens which REALLY needed that kind of money invested in it.

......then you point people to the Tesla site.:laughing: Grumpycat, are you Elon Musk?

Tesla's investor's site's feet are held to the fire for honesty by the SEC.

But if you already know everything without even having to look then there is no point.

Is no different than oil-haters claiming trillions of dollars of subsidies to oil companies. One researcher stretches the truth by claiming tax deductions for capital expenditures are subsidies then it becomes dogma repeated mouth to mouth and enhanced at every step. Same thing with the article ruffdog cited. He accepts it as fact but it contains no data just one writer's opinion about another article which was 2 years old at the time.
