  1. There's only a 5 year world supply for lithium batteries (and Tesla is using up too much of that for the few , compared to how little a smartphone uses for everyone). Current electrical infrastructure can't supply the electricity to all homes. Powerlines contribute to forest fires. Lithium batteries are mined by African children. Lithium batteries create toxic disposal wastes.

  2. Providing more lithium batteries for EV cars is just opening a can of worms because the electrical grid cannot support every house.

  3. A battery manufacturer should sell to the highest payer. Ford, GM, and VW have deep pockets and they can pay more for the batteries and put Tesla out of business.

  5. If u like to gamble, buy Tesla or go to Vegas. Battery loses range when pulling so it makes no sense that trucks are battery powered instead of hydrogen powered. If you like to invest, buy Amazon, Apple, Nvidia, Facebook, Microsoft, Google, Wells Fargo, Netflix TRUST THE PROCESS.

  6. There needs to be a law that prioritizes lithium for smartphones over electric cars because cars have petroleum and hydrogen alternatives.
