@SM16Basketball I daresay he would not invest in Tesla did he not know the outcome. And the outcome then was not EVs being a runaway success. Far from it. The outcome would be a piece of those USD 20 Billion to be granted by the U.S. Department of Energy. And going around Daimler Benz Claiming he was getting a piece of that money before ever filing the petition for it. He played with a marked deck of cards. There was no risk.

@DaleHartley you get moxie. But for the love of God , parse your sentences , please. Hit the space bar every now and then.

@usainengland Bravo. I never knew that of P.T.Barnum , although I knew of himself being candid. I will make sure it I ever get around Bridgeport CT again, to stop at his museum. Oddly enough , not a single piece of movie writing over his life.

@RogueSkull sure. By stepping into other people’s toes. By taking credit where not due. By misleading on information over fiducuary matters. We have contemporaries like him… Bernie Ebbers Ivan Boeski The head Execurives at Enron. Bernie Madoff.

Henry Ford made the lives of his workers better under his heralded pay rate. And the 48 hour workweek. Your messiah assumed control of twitter , cut payroll , and demanded twice the output with half of the staff. His lack of filtering by eliminating the monitoring department cost his company an exodus of advertisers. For all it is worth , he assumed command of the galleys and cracked the whip at the mind of those who stayed. That is the equivalent of a slave master.

@nitro6002 so true about the unnecessary deriding. I’ve seen it done with his face off against a Brazilian Judge. Just textbook Elon. And when such Judges did not budge , demanding uncensored malicious remarks on his platform to be taken down , Mr . Musk went on a personal level attack , inciting the Populace against the Judged and an elected President claiming himself publicly being a victim of Totalitarianism. I can’t tell whether the Judge is overreaching , nor I voted in the general elections. But I will grant the Judged could be a lot more draconian if he wanted against Mr Musk interests in Brazil. And that such differences could be sorted in private , without fanfare. To 0ut into perspective , Mr Musk would not dare to pull his stunts in China. A country with far more severe censorship than Brazil . And a system that granted him the right to operate without any joint venture , his automotive enterprise, a first amongst his peers . His silence there speaks volume for who he is.

@MrArtVein you are clever and articulate indeed…. But it could help a little better if you managed to break your whole lump of thoughts into parsed paragraphs. And please don’t give me the “ I wrote it from my smartphone “ blaber. Hit the space tab every once in a while. Will you ?

@beachcomber2008 go tell that to the coders and engineers who put it all together. And while at it, make sure middle management is going along with the narrative from the grand Pooh Bah.

@shamha1626 maybe. But other companies would be on the electric battery vehicles. And Toyota has been on the Hydrogen Engines much longer than Tesla has been in existence. And Toyota has been thr one to bring Hybrids to the market.

I’m for one love when John Cadogan calls out Elon Jesus. That Aussie has some sense of humor.

There is a point on this. The late Yan Matzelinger comes to the point. The negroe ( mulato ) , son of a black woman , born in the Dutch Guyana , whose father was a white Dutch engineer. Who did not grant paternity but was fair enough to arrange for the young boy to learn a trade. After some traveling as a merchant marine private , Mr Matzelinger , who learned the machine trades , settled in Lynn , Masssachusets. Mr Matzelinger worked multiple jobs , as a moonlighting machinist and at a shoe factory. At that time , shoe soles were stitched to their uppers by hand. Craftsmen who did the task were called shoe lasters. They were well paid and controlled the rhythm of the factory floor. Mr Matzelinger was a keen observer of how machines worked. So on his off hours he went on thinkering how to automate the lasting process. He eventually succeeded. And after registering patents for his breakthrough inventions , he was able to live well of his patents , and real the fruits of his hard labor. Yet, all the hard work took its toll and Mr Matzelinger eventually succumbed , not making past his 30’s. As a benefit for mankind , the world that can afford shoes , witnessed under his lifetime. Mr Matzelinger would never self agrandize his merits. He attended Church Functions, had white and young women as confidants , and attended social functions.
