That’s a hard pass for me. I’d rather opt out of social security. It’s a ponzi scam. If the government had put that into a private account, I’d have millions of dollars in there.

    We had electric cars in the 70s but the oil industry killed them.

    And Elon didn’t start Tesla. He bought it and took credit for it.

    I guess this is further proof that being rich doesn’t make you smart

      What car was tesla selling when Elon bought it? What factory did they own? You’re just proving my point.

        I am not proving your point. Tesla hasn’t started production yet but would have regardless of musk’s involvement. And since then, he made the company worse because he’s an idiot who happened to have the money to take over a promising company.

        Nothing to say about Amazon, though?

          They would have went bankrupt. Do you think they let Elon in out of the kindness of their heart? They were out of money. It was let Elon invest or go BK. You think Tesla would have been better off BK? lol.

          Amazon is no worse than Walmart.
