https://www.teslarati.com/elon-musk-tesla-spacex-subsidies/ Do some research before you display your utter ignorance. SpaceX gets no subsidies and received half as much as Boeing for astronaut transport, but did 100 percent of the work.
As for Tesla, take a minute to read our public filings and you will see that EV incentives represent a minor part of our revenue. On the other hand, oil & gas companies get massive tax breaks that exceed those given to the EV industry by several orders of magnitude.
@Reason10 No, actual sources like financial news sources.
And again. We already know you hate women. No need to scream that they intimidate you. We already know your masculinity is fragile. So fragile in fact women having opinions threaten you.
Sighs. We knew Trump was peachy with just this kind of "no questioning conflicts" unethical kind of thing when he was elected. Remember his "perfect call" with Zelinksy and "all I need is 10,000 votes?"
I get that it's bigger stakes with Musk deputized for him, but Trump's spending is always aimed at lining his own pockets or those of his minions or allies.
E.g., the wall, concentration/deportation camps, Trump Gaza Resort.
I applaud efforts by the media to report what Trump doesnt want them to for as long as can though, even if it makes them the enemy of the MAGA people, though.
@sunsporter1649 Of course not, and I think you know better.
I do think that Trump is actually looking to do all of that, though.
For example, the physical border wall comes to mind.
I also think that some spending is not wasteful and is worthwhile to prevent corruption, like background checks, ethics counsel, and Inspectors General.
@JSul3 well seeing as social security has never been audited, yes I believe it , they sent my dad checks for about 9 years after he passed away and that was 10 years ago I had to take hi birth certificate to their office after I had called them, about 15 times and only then did they start to stop selling the checks
Makes sense when you understand that free money to oligarchs don't count. It is the poors that are not allowed to get help from the government.
That is their ideology in a nutshell. It is based on the belief that just being rich makes them special and deserving above the rest. A new tech bro version of divine right of kings.
In 2021, SpaceX netted a major multibillion-dollar contract under the Biden administration to send the first woman and the first person of color to the moon as part of NASA's Artemis program, whose long-term is the exploration of Mars.
It's funny how DEI suddenly seems a good idea when Musk can make money out of it. SpaceX is clearly a woke company and all government contracts with it should cease at once!
@Reason10 That is an absurd statement. Jim Crow laws were an attempt by the racial majority group to use the law to maintain their historical privileges. Clearly there is no parallel. In addition, Jim Crow did nothing to make it easier for women, the disabled, older workers, parents, pregnant women, sexual.minoroties, and so on, to overcome prejuduce and barriers in the workplace.
Any argument is against to the rules, now. I guess solutions would be out of line where you only agree and are only positive. So forever this is your politics. No more talking and no change.
@MarineBob Then 'contracting' came into vogue and practically every city and corporation began the practice in order to reduce labor costs and benefits.
Yup. Mainstream Americans brought fascism with your two parties! No getting away cuz y'all don't have a problem with no fascism! That's a actual genocide with US weapons, but y'all fine with it! We leftists always knew you. Yuck!!!
