  1. I have a collection that would put this guy to shame. In Forza.

  2. 70 % tax rate? Here's what would happen. All of the companies would leave the country, so you wouldn't get anymore tax dollars from them. This would mean that they would take all of the jobs with them leading to higher unemployment. Now you have more people on welfare and less people paying taxes to fund welfare. Eventually this would start to snowball causing the national deficit to skyrocket until our government declares bankruptcy.

  3. I don't know, GM made the Bolt which was in every objective way just as good as a model 3, except maybe a bit slower of course. But the Bolt didn't sell. Why is that? Well its because electric cars are intrinsically incompatible with most people's lifestyles. IE too expensive and too inconvenient. What sell Tesla's is the cool factor and the hype. Tesla's are like IPhones, everyone wants one because they're trendy. They can't really explain why they want an IPhone over an Android, they just want it so they will be seen as "cool". Tesla cars sell on the same exact principle. So in other words other electric cars will always do very poorly. Electric cars have almost no chance of replacing conventional vehicles. Unless the batteries can be produced for 1/4 the cost, recharge in a matter of 10 minutes from 0%, and become small enough and light enough to weigh less than or equal to an ICE powertrain. Who knows this all might be possible with solid state batteries but its extremely unlikely, but i will keep an open mind. The most likely replacement for ICE vehicles is going to be hydrogen fuel cells. They combine all of the convenience and practicality of ICE with the cleanliness and efficiency of electric motors.
