  1. Won't matter, doesn't matter: Tesla model Y is the best selling car in Euope of any kind including gas cars. The reason for this is it offers the most value for the money. If I were a Tesla worker I would not want a union, I would want the employee stock program that they have instead. This program has resulted in more millionaires working at Tesla than any union would ever. This whole thing stated because of a few workers. The vast number of Tesla employees in Sweden, Denmark, and Germany do not want a union. These are the facts: People will continue to buy Teslas in Europe as long as they continue to offer more value than any other vehicles. Don't like the facts? Too bad. The Germany unions have decided not to support this strike, because it would be illegal for them to do so. It is much better to own part of the company that you work for than to set up another bureaucracy of questionable management.

  2. If you think you would be better off in a union working for GM or Ford, than to be working for Tesla and taking advantage of the employee stock program -- think again you woke puddin' heads. Time for the woke folk to wake the fuck up and put down the crack pipe of commercial media lies. The facts: The average salary paid to an employee working at Tesla is $110,192. Tesla pay is based on an employee’s position and department. The product team earns an average salary of $201,032. This is the highest salary figure of any department at Tesla. The lowest earning department at Tesla is admin. It is estimated a receptionist earns $38,015 annually. Just to make it easier lets say a salary of 40k. Because Mary is a real looker, is charming and has a sexy voice so she was able to get 40k as a salary, though she never got any raises to make up for it. That means that every six months she is able to buy three thousand dollars of Tesla stock at a discount of 15% off the lower price of the closing price of day one and day 180 each six months. An example: Mary works as the lowest paid position in Tesla. She is a receptionist. She has been working for five years and ten months. She started work on Feb 1, 2019. Tesla closed at $21.33. On August 1st 2019 it closed at $15.04. She was then able to spend $3,000 on 234.5 shares of Tesla at a employee discount price of 12.79. On Feb 1st 2020, she was again eligible to buy three thousand dollars of stock. Tesla closes at $44.53, but she is still able to buy 234.5 more shares at $12.79. Mary now has 469 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2020 Tesla closed at $166.11. But Mary was still able to buy $3000 dollars of Tesla at $37.85 (79.25 shares). Mary now has 548.25 shares of Tesla. Thirty days later Tesla stock splits 5 - 1. Mary now has 2,741.25 shares of Tesla stock. On February 1st 2021 Tesla closes at $225.17. But Mary is still able to buy it for $141.19. Mary now has 2,762.5 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2021 Tesla closes at $245.25, but Mary is able to purchase it for 208.46. She spends her $3000 and Mary now has 2,776.89 shares of Tesla. On February 1st 2022 Tesla closed at $290.14. But Mary is able to buy it at $246.62. Mary now has 2,789.05 shares of Tesla stock. On August 1st 2022 Tesla closed at $275.61. Mary's price is $234.27. Mary now has 2,801.85 shares of Tesla. Twenty three days later Tesla stock splits 3-1. Mary now has 8,405.56 shares of Tesla. . . . Are you beginning to understand what nonsense you are spewing? It's OK I know you can't admit because you are steeped in lies and have to make meaningless "virtue" signaling to the rest of the puddin' head mob. On February 1st 2023 Tesla closes at $205.71. Mary's price is $176.85. She now owns 8,422.52 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2023 Tesla closed at $258.08 Mary is still able to buy at $176.85 Mary now owns 8,439.47 shares of Tesla stock. Mary has been working for almost six years. Her salary totals $232,000. Her Tesla stock is worth $2,088,784.96. She became a millionaire working as a receptionist. Conclusion: Not what you thought -- aye Elroy?

  3.  @danpham333  That's a false equivalency. There is no other company like Tesla. How many times do they have to turn down unionization to get the scumbags to let it go? Only 2 of the employees in Sweden want a union. That's not what this is about. It's about a union that acts like the mafia to get it's way.

  4.  @danpham333  GM will not be around in ten years without another government bailout, which they won't pay back. You want personal anecdotes? I used to know men in the Allentown PA area that were in the union at Bethlehem Steel (remember them) They were proud of the fact that they went to work each day and did absolutely nothing, because their jobs had been eliminated due to advances in tech, yet because of their union contract they could not be fired or moved to a useful position. There are dozens of small and midsized business in my area that were forced out of business by unionization.

  5.  @sk0pe  Yeah that's the BS narrative. It's not an either or situation as you falsely attempt to present. First of all Elon Musk does not own Tesla. He barely owns 14% of it Elroy. You guys are like the hairballs attempting to prevent a future that is inevitable. Employee ownership is what works. Unions have put so many companies out of business it's absurd. Run at times by actual gangsters, and questionable persons most of the time. You Elon haters are a sad lot, nobody has done more to allocate significant assets for the ultimate benefit of humanity. And you just can't stand it because he has Assburgers and is not great at modeling other people's emotional reactions to his meaningless BS. Tesla is far more than Musk, and will be the most valuable industry on earth in the near future. And the workers at Tesla and Space X do not want a union. What can't you understand about that? Tesla stock is going to the moon in the next five years and every worker will profit -- einstein.

  6. Really? That's not what the actual facts say. The facts say that they are the safest vehicles of all. They have the highest owner satisfaction and loyalty, and they are more than two generations ahead of any other EV. Also they have the most American parts and labor of all cars sold in the USA. And workers who unlike the union bored automatons just putting time in, actually feel a mission to change the world. But they don't advertise, so all the commercial media has been trying to strong arm them with slanted and spun negative reports, and a vast army of union trolls, short sellers, and those invested in the dinocar industry like yourself continually lie about Tesla. FU

  7. This comment is incongruent with reality. But I understand. Musk created wealth he did not take it from the homeless. Most of his wealth came from taking financial risks and putting his own money all in on tech that others thought foolish. And most of it came from investors and from people with middle to upper incomes Leroy. Don't believe the lies. Commercial media has been trying to coerce Musk into paying the big ad buck like the other OEMs. Like GM in 2020 spent 2.2 billion dollars on ads. So they lie on a daily basis, probably like you, to try to force Tesla to spend money with them to curtail the continual negative spin and lies. Like yours.

  8.  @henrikl4244  Unless you really can't afford it, or are over 65, or disabled. Then you get free healthcare, $600 per year for glasses/contacts, between insurance and SNAP you get free food, $7,000 per year for dental, Around $600 dollar per quarter for OTC health aids, most or all of your rent paid depending on your SS rate, subsidized home heating, free weatherization of your apt or house, a rebate on your property tax or rent costs, a minimum of about 10grand per year in SSI, if you are single without dependents. Plus other stuff I can't remember right now. Not exactly the picture that the woke puddin' heads paint.

  9. It doesn't matter why it is "because". It will make your life easier and more secure and a lot more fun when you only do what you want to.

  10.  @murrygondwana7260  Yep. Jobs will change, but only those who want to will work. Some will have a problem adjusting to a world of abundance were they are free to pursue their interests, the Amish perhaps. But they will be free to carry on as they wish, but without the threat of need or loss.

  11.  @joeybleu66  You need to give up the commercial media lies Joey. The media is not there to inform you, it is there to sell ad space/time. Tesla does not spend the billions per year that the other OEMs do on ads. Almost everything you read in the commercial media about Tesla is a lie. In the media attempt to both profit from the small minds who hate Musk because he is wealthy and draws clicks and views, and shake down Tesla into spending billions per year on ads like the other auto OEMS. Just like basing it's value on it's EV division is a fools game. Tesla commercial energy division makes more than Tesla EV, for instance, and it has a dozen internal startups each of which would dwarf present Tesla value if they come to fruition.

  18. Congress pasted a law which makes their insider trading prosecution free. There are actually ETAs that follow the stock disclosures of the members of congress and their families and friends and mirrors them. One for Republican members and one for Democrats. The Democratic fund does better. Nancy is an investment wizard! Nothing to see here, ignore that man behind the curtain.

  19. He still has over 250 billion so I think he is doing OK. Unlike your hate rant which is all bull shit that the commercial media fed you in it's attempt to shake down a few billion a year from Tesla, to get Tesla to advertise to stop the lies and negative spin. Fools like you think that the media is there to inform you, it is not, it's sole purpose is to sell ad time/space no matter what it's political orientation. So they tell you exactly what you want to hear. And in your case you want lies to reinforce your stupid knee jerk reactions. GM 2.2 billion in ads in 2020, Tesla 0.

Tesla pay is based on an employee’s position and department. The product team earns an average salary of $201,032. This is the highest salary figure of any department at Tesla. The lowest earning department at Tesla is admin. It is estimated a receptionist earns $38,015 annually. Just to make it easier lets say a salary of 40k. Because Mary is a real looker, is charming and has a sexy voice so she was able to get 40k as a salary, though she never got any raises to make up for it. That means that every six months she is able to buy three thousand dollars of Tesla stock at a discount of 15% off the lower price of the closing price of day one and day 180 each six months. An example: Mary works as the lowest paid position in Tesla. She is a receptionist. She has been working for five years and ten months. She started work on Feb 1, 2019. Tesla closed at $21.33. On August 1st 2019 it closed at $15.04. She was then able to spend $3,000 on 234.5 shares of Tesla at a employee discount price of 12.79. On Feb 1st 2020, she was again eligible to buy three thousand dollars of stock. Tesla closes at $44.53, but she is still able to buy 234.5 more shares at $12.79. Mary now has 469 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2020 Tesla closed at $166.11. But Mary was still able to buy $3000 dollars of Tesla at $37.85 (79.25 shares). Mary now has 548.25 shares of Tesla. Thirty days later Tesla stock splits 5 - 1. Mary now has 2,741.25 shares of Tesla stock. On February 1st 2021 Tesla closes at $225.17. But Mary is still able to buy it for $141.19. Mary now has 2,762.5 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2021 Tesla closes at $245.25, but Mary is able to purchase it for 208.46. She spends her $3000 and Mary now has 2,776.89 shares of Tesla. On February 1st 2022 Tesla closed at $290.14. But Mary is able to buy it at $246.62. Mary now has 2,789.05 shares of Tesla stock. On August 1st 2022 Tesla closed at $275.61. Mary's price is $234.27. Mary now has 2,801.85 shares of Tesla. Twenty three days later Tesla stock splits 3-1. Mary now has 8,405.56 shares of Tesla. . . . Are you beginning to understand what nonsense you are spewing? It's OK I know you can't admit because you are steeped in lies and have to make meaningless "virtue" signaling to the rest of the puddin' head mob. On February 1st 2023 Tesla closes at $205.71. Mary's price is $176.85. She now owns 8,422.52 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2023 Tesla closed at $258.08 Mary is still able to buy at $176.85 Mary now owns 8,439.47 shares of Tesla stock. Mary has been working for almost six years. Her salary totals $232,000. Her Tesla stock is worth $2,088,784.96. She became a millionaire working as a receptionist.

  29.  @danpham333  Tesla moved because the cost of doing business in CA is high, and they still have a major plant in Fremont CA, that didn't move. You would have to be a fool to build a new gigafactory in CA, when so many other places offer less gov interference in everything. People are fleeing CA, not just companies. In my home town of Santa Cruz, before I left it cost over 75k in permitting before you could even brake ground to build a house. Get real. You think it is more important for a hundred million people to have one dollar, with which they couldn't even buy a cup of coffee, or someone with vision and a positive sense of human destiny to have a hundred million (or billion) dollars to allocate toward that vision. I say screw the third cups of coffee. That is the crux of our disagreement. Why do you think Elon is working like a yeoman while he could be fulfilling every common man's dreams while sitting back sipping mimosas on his private island? I can see by your comments that you have no idea what is coming, what is right around the corner. Nobody is going to need to work unless they want to. It will be an age of abundance -- eventually for everyone. But a hundred million 1/3 cups of coffee won't bring it about and is ultimately meaningless.

  30.  @danpham333  The Teslas sold in the USA have more American parts and labor than any other car. But labor is soon to be a thing of the past. You will only work if you want to work, on things you want to work on. Labor will obviously try to prevent this, because the union management will attempt to protect and increase their power by any means, just like any other pedestrian member of the power elite does and always has done.

  31.  @abasilumsmith91  Nice orientation of the population if you have it. And you just may have it because you ultimately did not have to deter the Soviets from invading you because someone else was picking up the tab. So you could offer two years maternity leave etc.

  32.  @henrikl4244  The number one selling car in Sweden is Tesla. Your facts are not facts. . . . "An opinion piece published in Nerikes Allehanda (NA), a daily newspaper in Sweden, suggested that Tesla employees are getting frustrated because nobody seems to be listening to the people who are actually working for the electric vehicle maker. The piece’s author clarified that Tesla workers are afraid, not of the electric vehicle maker, but of the union. " Union shills are full of "disinformation".

  33.  @sk0pe  You would be a fool to buy any EV other than a Tesla at this point. People who know nothing have your opinion that there are other EVs that offer similar value. The EV competition in China is fierce compared to anywhere else. What is the number one selling EV in China? -- Tesla. If you add in hybrids it's BYD which are just garbage compared to Tesla. Engineers know that Tesla is two generations ahead of everyone else and pulling further ahead by the week. When the engineers at Toyota bought and torn down a model Y last summer they sais it was, "An engineering masterpiece which they were unable to presently duplicate." But they are now adopting Telsa manufactuing tech as fast as they can, and by the time they get it down Tesla will be so far ahead it will be over the event horizon.

  34.  @danpham333  You are criticizing a silly hypothetical example illustrating how having assets allocated for the good of humankind is only possible with a concentration of wealth. Are you a child? It was supposed to be a silly example thus the 1/3 cup of coffee. No wonder you are confused. Once again: Elon Musk only owns 14% of Tesla. Small time individual retail investors own more than that.

  35.  @sk0pe  The US EV sub is greater than that in Sweden Elroy. Sweden doesn't even have an EV gov sub anymore. Your views are so twisted and distorted it's incredible.

  36.  @danpham333  That's true, but Texas is not one of them. If you lived around the Tesla plant in Austin, you would benefit greatly, as would your children if they had an interest in the physical sciences. Keep Austin weird.

  37.  @danpham333  Well I actually agree with some of your comment for once. Bring back the Eisenhower administration, it's tax rates and the CEO comp ratio -- sounds good to me. Unfortunately Congress is corrupt, unions are corrupt. Despite the mountain of disinformation put out by commercial media on a daily bases with which they are trying to coerce Tesla into spending billions of dollar per year like the other auto OEMS have to (GM alone 2.2 billion on ads in 22)-- Tesla and Musk are not corrupt. You are talking about companies as a whole. This is a false equivalency. And employee productivity has skyrocketed because of automation and compute, not because they are working harder. And you continue to ignore my proposition that work will, sooner than you think, be a thing of the past. Give it 15 years. The only labor will be hobby farmers and the like. Most people will just seek pleasure and entertainment while the same percentage that is now driving the tech and knowledge future with their love of science in all areas will be doing what they love. No need for unions at all.
    1
  38.  @danpham333  Again you are using a false equivalency. If you worked for the Social Security Administration in Mississippi, and you moved to CA you would see a substantial increase in your salary. Because the cost of living is so much higher in CA. Likewise if you worked in CA and moved to rural PA you would see a substantial decrease in your salary for the same reason. Real spending power bro, that's what matters. Gotta go -- have the last word -- you need it.
    1
  39.  @danpham333  Back. It's a meaningless stat because you are comparing all business. So of course established companies that are large enough to be targeted by unions will average more than the conglomeration of business that are less profitable. Migrant workers, part time everything thrown into one. The problem with your reasoning is that Tesla is singular. I don't know where you live, but here in central PA anyone with no experience can walk into a plant and get a job of twenty plus dollars per hour. My cleaning lady makes $25 per hour -- no skills, no union, and $3 less than the average union autoworker salary and she has more work than she can take. Plus it's cash and the chances are minimal that she pays taxes on it and of course no dues. Take an autoworker who is ready to retire. Started work in the eighties. I am not going to do the math, but I guarantee you, if you took the money he spent on dues over thirty years and had invested it in a stock index he would be far better off financially. And then if they had taken their stock and sold it and bought TEsla five years ago, every dollar they invested would be worth $1,141. So if they invested a messily 1k they would be more than a millionare today. If they had invested all their union dues for thirty years they would have more then 12million dollars today. That is using $15/hr from beginning to end for thirty years and you know they would have made more than that. On the other hand the UAW considers their latest wins a victory. These companies that caved will all be gone within a decade. No more GM, or STelantis, Ford may survive, and possibly Toyota if they copy Tesla and purchase tech from them. GM will once again come begging for a gov bail out that once again they will not repay. Plus it is all irrelevant because no one will be doing unskilled manual labor, and possibly not legal work, or a hundred other jobs that AI and the inevitable humanoid robots will be performing vastly better. No labor in the future so unions will serve no practical purpose. Even now if you teach one Teslbot a skill all of them become just as accomplished as the one that was taught it. In the future this will mean tens of thousands of bots will be able to master tasks in no time, instead of months and years. Unions and guilds served their purpose but nothing can stop what is now happening.

  40.  @abasilumsmith91  Absolute nothing at all. And Tesla is attempting to make a secure and lavish life not just for it's employees but eventually for everybody. And that takes concentrated capital, vast amounts of it allocated in strategic industries both for the security of families and the race as a whole, That's what the whole independent off world colony thing is about. Musk knows he will be dead before it happens, but he is striving to secure it. These things are not a secret, it's all spelled out in Tesla's not so secret secret plan that was published years ago. If you are young enough you will live to see thousands of Tesla bots landing on Mars, perhaps with a few scientists and engineers, and building and infrastructure out of native materials that will provide the seed for a real self-sustaining colony. Then, asteroids, nuclear war, climate change may come, eventually some extinction event will happen, it has over and over. But now thanks to this much maligned revolutionary thinker, consciousness will survive, in an otherwise dark universe (as far as we know). So I guess that having a month or two vacation, or a two year maternity leave is nice, but so irrelevant in the big picture. And of course the other off shoot of the convergence of tech breakthroughs the world is now witnessing will be affluence for all, and most likely a health-span of a vigorous few centuries. So what is important, the vision and pursuit of human ascendancy and it's golden destiny among the stars or a six week long vacation like my French friend who washed windows got?

  41.  @sk0pe Wow, you must get a thrill out of being wrong. The only European country with higher EV subs that the USA is Norway7. At one point Tesla did get a gov loan. Unlike the unionized GM: Tesla payed it back, early, with interest. I am not talking trickle down economics at all, that's just more rhetorical bull on your part. I personally am in favor of a generous guaranteed income for everyone, given not in gov programs or vouchers, but in cash. Except in instances where the recipient is not capable of handling it to help themselves. Because we are gonna need it, and we are gonna get it, because the present economic paradigm is about to explode due to disruptive tech. First here in the USA, Canada and Mexico, but eventually for all mankind. When you are living in the coming world of abundance and the golden destiny of mankind among the stars then what are you gonna bitch about? (I'm sure you will find something).

  42.  @sk0pe  I read what you said about Tesla employee stock program not benefiting the lowest wage workers and I was interested so I looked up the facts, read the program details and found out the the actual truth regarding what you wrote. Here it is Elroy. The average salary paid to an employee working at Tesla is $110,192. Tesla pay is based on an employee’s position and department. The product team earns an average salary of $201,032. This is the highest salary figure of any department at Tesla. The lowest earning department at Tesla is admin. It is estimated a receptionist earns $38,015 annually. Just to make it easier lets say a salary of 40k. Because Mary is a real looker, is charming and has a sexy voice so she was able to get 40k as a salary, though she never got any raises to make up for it. That means that every six months she is able to buy three thousand dollars of Tesla stock at a discount of 15% off the lower price of the closing price of day one and day 180 each six months. And example: Mary works as the lowest paid position in Tesla. She is a receptionist. She has been working for five years and ten months. She started work on Feb 1, 2019. Tesla closed at $21.33. On August 1st 2019 it closed at $15.04. She was then able to spend $3,000 on 234.5 shares of Tesla at a employee discount price of 12.79. On Feb 1st 2020, she was again eligible to buy three thousand dollars of stock. Tesla closes at $44.53, but she is still able to buy 234.5 more shares at $12.79. Mary now has 469 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2020 Tesla closed at $166.11. But Mary was still able to buy $3000 dollars of Tesla at $37.85 (79.25 shares). Mary now has 548.25 shares of Tesla. Thirty days later Tesla stock splits 5 - 1. Mary now has 2,741.25 shares of Tesla stock. On Feburary 1st 2021 Tesla closes at $225.17. But Mary is still able to buy it for $141.19. Mary now has 2,762.5 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2021 Tesla closes at $245.25, but Mary is able to purchase it for 208.46. She spends her $3000 and Mary now has 2,776.89 shares of Tesla. On February 1st 2022 Tesla closed at $290.14. But Mary is able to buy it at $246.62. Mary now has 2,789.05 shares of Tesla stock. On August 1st 2022 Tesla closed at $275.61. Mary's price is $234.27. Mary now has 2,801.85 shares of Tesla. Twenty three days later Tesla stock splits 3-1. Mary now has 8,405.56 shares of Tesla. . . . Are you beginning to understand what nonsense you are spewing? It's OK I know you can't admit it even though it is a FACT. On February 1st 2023 Tesla closes at $205.71. Mary's price is $176.85. She now owns 8,422.52 shares of Tesla. On August 1st 2023 Tesla closed at $258.08 Mary is still able to buy at $176.85 Mary now owns 8,439.47 shares of Tesla stock. Mary has been working for almost six years. Her salary totals $232,000. Her Tesla stock is worth $2,088,784.96. She became a millionaire working as a receptionist. Conclusion: You are a shilll spewing nonsense who believes the lies of commercial media.

  52. Where I live, a small town in the rust belt, any fool with no experience can walk into any one of a dozen plants and get near or over $20 per hour. My cleaning lady makes $25 per hours, no skills, and no taxes, and has all the work she wants.

  53. We had much higher tax rates during the Eisenhower years. When Bill Clinton was pres we were running a budget surplus. OF course all the union shills hate Tesla. It works so much better than anything they have their hand on that is is going to put them out of business simply by offering more value than any competition. It is better to be an owner of the company where you work than someone who just shows up to put in the hours. And it is a fact! Tesla has produced more in-house millionaires than any company in history. It's kind of easy to be democratic socialists while the USA held back the soviet expansion that would have otherwise engulfed your country, and you provided great welfare for your pop instead of defense for them that could have made them safe. Personally I would rather live in Denmark, or Norway, or even Sweden that the USA, but for totally other reasons than unions.

Plus the survival of the only known apperceptively conscious species will have it's survival somewhat secured by an independent off-world colony, and the human race will embark on it's golden destiny among the stars and begin to exploit the inexhaustible resources to be found there. To the benefit of all. The Culture will arrive.
