Or eat food from American farms.
And, since Tariffs will force prices of American goods artificially higher. . .basically anything.

The overall point is that Musk’s company does not meet the market value it is currently holding due to certain outside forces, i.e. federal money.
Musk relies on subsidies for all of his businesses. Hell, his Solar City project bought panels from a sub who used prison labor at less than a dollar an hour.

Don't get mad at me for simply disputing a stupid article and topic.
Where?
quote:Do I seem upset?
Did I upset you by correlating Trump which began with a quote re: promoting oneself to thrive in business?
I am more fascinated by your collectivist view of respect, and your implication that you get it from television news sources.

The real con with Musk is that he's figured out how to dupe the gov't and get tax payers to pay for much of his work
quote:They do the same,a nd they do it more than Tesla, and Tesla is the only one to have paid monies back with interest. But...he's duping the government!!!!
Call him a fraud because of that if you want, but every company out there would do the same if they could, not to mention many indeed do the same.
quote:I"m not even sure that he's actually promised this?
The difference with him is that he has promised to change the world with his technology, so he's constantly under the microscope, and to this point has not really delivered.
But at any rate, changing the world kinda takes time, it's not something you do in 5 years.

That are available to everyone, yes.
So of you have kids you don't take the child tax credit? Or if you were in school you wouldn't take the lifetime learning deduction? Or the student loan interest deduction? Or the mortgage interest deduction? Not everyone has kids, or went/goes to college or has a mortgage.
What a stupid fricking take.

That's offered to everyone with kids and is part of the tax code? Yep.

I think we are lost in translation somewhere. I've responded since PG 1. All I can do.

take tax exemptions that are offered to everyone. Not remotely related.
It’s the same principle.
The subsidies and breaks Musk receives are available to anyone willing to do what he has done.

It's part of the tax code.
Do you negotiate your tax credits?

Exactly and you said you only take credits or deductions offered to everyone.
Teslas incentives are available to anyone who wants to produce electric cars so you're reasoning is incorrect at best.

And the SOB paid back his auto subsidy! Name one dude who pays back a child tax credit or any deduction in the "tax code"

Are you explicitly barred from doing so?
