minus-squaredohpaz42linkEnglish164•2 days ago Officials are now reviewing the Tesla sales data to determine if any irregularities occurred during the program’s final days. 8,600 Teslas 4 Locations in 3 days (one reported 1,200 sales in one day) $43 mil in rebates ($4 mil in one day) Let’s be generous and say the cheapest Tesla is $40k before any rebates. That’s $344 mil in sales, with an average of 2,150 Teslas per day. I’m pretty sure it’s obvious there are irregularities.
minus-squaresunzu2linkfedilink26•1 day agoOhh wow governments actually can do basic forensic analysis when they don’t like the oligarch… hmm, why can’t they do this shit with grocery stores engaged in price gouging?!
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish17•1 day agoFair point, but don’t make this a whattaboutism. Cheer them on for this
minus-squaresunzu2linkfedilink3•1 day agoJust just highlighting that the regime can do something about these crimes but they give crocodile tears and do nothing. Loblaw CEO should the rope for his crimes… but somehow government does not see it like that. hmmm
