Who’s gonna buy a Tesla when no one’s working? Ever think about that?Tesla is all about AI technologies not cars.
I guess Democrats should let it open and stop lying about masks and viruses huh
@Nick Pride there is no democrats vs. republicans. Don’t you understand? They all work for the Fed and central banks. Who’s at the top none will truly know. Every four years people vote. Yet, college education is still expensive, healthcare costs will make anyone ill a pauper if they don’t have insurance. People work and work to pay bills because they bought things they never needed with money they never had. Violence in major cities remains steady. And the wars never end. We’ve been in Afghanistan something like 20 years. All that money spent for what? Freedom? Democracy? Next time you vote ask yourself if it will change anything. Few years after you vote you’ll still be working to pay bills, and keep a roof over your head. You’ll still be paying high taxes. And you’ll still have this idea that one party is better than the other.
Chinese fleets, for $5000 below cost.
There are plenty of people working out of 330 Million people, most are working.
The average person can’t afford a Tesla anyway.
D L – over 500,000 TESLA vehicles are PRE Sold.
you can DUMP THE PUMP and Charge at HOME for less than $5 from Flat.
I was thinking buying a Tesla but I changed my mind.
Fi3ryPh03n1x Elon is talking to a con man and that cannot be good. He should stay away from politicians and specially the corrupt ones.
@Average Joe Just because he’s talking with someone who disagrees with u politically doesn’t mean he supports him, he was just thanking the president for congratulating him. How about actually growing up and start realizing that not everyone has the same opinion and u should also stay away from politics since it obviously triggers u so much.
Hollow2ndgreatestperson in the world politics doesn’t trigger me. What triggers me is that after 3 1/2 you cannot see the monster in the White House. You say Elon is not a trump supporter but the fact that he is thanking this SOB, Elon is allowing him to use him for political gain in Texas as he knows Biden has a shot to win there.
Average Joe should be Super Triggered Snowflake TDS Joe
@Average Joe sounds like you never planed to buy a Tesla in the first place.
It’s true and surprising he is the interest of the people. Also, sad how many people in the comments don’t know what is going on and don’t have an interest in their economy. With all of this money printing when the economy reopens in the Fall of 2021 there will be inflation and with debt coming out of everywhere the Fed will not have the option of raising interest rates as they did in the ’70s. The dollar will be falling by 20% per year. People will literally be starving in the streets. Its sad people do not know these basic functions about how money works and calling for the demise of their own currency. Perhaps he is concerned with how his cars will sell during inflation, never the less, he has the interest of the consumer.
“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”
-Thomas Jefferson
@Harry Dingling Wow! That is big! How do you think that applies to the world today? Do you think that can apply to the Facebook Libra?
The US dollar needs to be backed by physical currency. Gold is too scarce, so why not use power? Why not stockpile power in gigafactories and value the dollar proportionally to it? That incentivizes renewable power production and gives us tons of disposable power in the event of an emergency
@Fi3ryPh03n1x The act of turning the power from the sun into usable energy is where the value comes in. The country most able to do so, would quite literally be the most powerful. Then you just make the value of the dollar directly proportional to that.
That would encourage us to use the stored power, thus electrically driven vehicles would become more practical rather than combustion engine ones, and at the same time you can generate it all naturally (Hydroelectric, solar, fuel cell). Then you just speckle the power generation facilities and gigafactories all around the country so it can’t all be attacked at once
@Harry Dingling Sounds idealistic. How do you intend to convince those who have gold standard in place to change their mind?
Also, gold works as a support for economy because of it’s rarity, not because of its abundance.
Solar technology is not a secret. If money were tied to it, there would be no stopping countries from doing this, and that would not add value, but dilute it.
Your understanding of the value of renewable energy is strong, but your understanding of economics needs some brushing up.
@Fi3ryPh03n1x People who have gold standards in place, more power to them. It’s fiat currency I’m worried about.
Good point on the gold, but power can be viewed as perpetual scarcity in a sense, can it not? I mean the level of overall scarcity would only be determined by the ambitions of that society.
If their goal is to do something ambitious that requires tons of power, the scarcity is immense. If the society chooses to lull in production, power becomes stockpiled, literally creating the potential for more production. It’s almost a win win
Sounds crazy and it would essentially kill the stockpiles of wealth that the oligarchs have accumulated, so no way in hell it would ever happen. Money > furthering society. The human rule
@Fi3ryPh03n1x Just a thought anyway
All money is backed by GDP o each country
,high production,good economy = high curency value
Also
Thats why Bitcoin aka Big CON is completely worthless
and will never be acepted by any real Bank
Its a Ponzi scheme if you didnt realize it yet
Had no plans of getting a Tesla, but now it’ll be my next car. Musk needs to 100% leave California.
@James Franko Dawn it! why are you so lazy?
June, 25 The Detroit News, Tesla Inc. is planning to expand a battery-research facility in the San Francisco Bay Area.
June, 25 Tesla Inc. is planning to expand a battery-research facility in the San Francisco Bay Area. The electric-car maker laid out its plans in documents filed with the city of Fremont, Calif., where the facility is located.
May, 20 CNBC, Keeping Elon Musk’s threat to move Tesla out of California would cost at least $1 billion, analysts say.
July 22. Electrek, Elon Musk made a rare comment about Tesla Roadster production, which had been delayed a few times, and he hinted at a start to production in California within 12 to 18 months.
July, 22. Teslarati, Tesla’s highly-anticipated Roadster could see production as early as next year from its Fremont, California factory, as it would seem, based on hints from CEO Elon Musk.
*****Home work for you, research the following *****
May 20, AutoNews, Texas law prohibits a vehicle manufacturer from also operating dealerships, even if the outlets sell other vehicle types. The law also bans Tesla-owned stores in the state. The bills were introduced in early March and follow a similar effort two years ago that failed.
He is moving to texas due to Covid
@Ëë Mage he left lol he is smart
@James Franko that’s what everyone is doing even us, small business owners . California is collapsing and forcing lockdowns but still has the highest numbers ( they say that ) it’s the worse stare I ever lived at in terms of safety , tax , too many regulations , no freedom , traffic , congestion rude people and maybe now it’s a little better cause Hollywood is no more , that’s the only good part lol . Its not a secret that people are leaving this bankrupt state with the worse administration ever
@angienla Ang By the way, the next SpaceX Star Ship program is located in California with test facilities en Texas and Florida. I remember the “California is collapsing” thing since the 90’s. it’s pretty similar to the “Jesus is coming” thing, please keep your prayers going.
Tesla to $3,000
CLP no trump spoke after it dropped
@3SGE perfect time to buy in, no one will remember in a week
@Paul S that said , covid is causing great damage and cannot be left not addressed , must keep strong hand with tesla shares
@Alex 0393 Oh it’s going to drop more than that, Elon’s buddies are taking their profits right now and he’s going to tank it to prepare for the next pump. This is the 6th time he’s done this and people still never learn.
It’s way over valued. I’d get out now before the crash. Market cap bigger than Toyota. Tesla sell less than 5% of Toyota annual sales
Go Texas. Let’s roll.
Trump is engaged in his standard practice of giving atta boys to people who support his policies and demeaning companies who are his personal enemies.
That being said, he happened to get this one right as Tesla is on the precipice of changing the world.
He happens to like union busting, covid denying Elon Musk, that’s it.
@3SGE No union to bust here…robots work hard, don’t whine or demand more pay than they are worth…
@james Ponga What?
What about the jet packs and super science weapons?
My dogs and jackals gotta get super science upgrades.
Trump wants to abolish electric cars. He’s rolling back regulations. Trump dementia is not good. 🇺🇸
TRUMP is EVIL Personified.
@Mark Plott No-one is evil personified except in movies or the mediaeval period
Well…didn’t we just watch Trump give a yuuge endorsement to an EV company? I mean, I’d never vote for the guy but that just happened.
Frankly I think Musk is playing him. Don’t tell anyone.
By 2030 I bet Tesla plants will be in 20 states.
@Tesla Equals – S.3.X.Y Some states just don’t make sense due to their tax framework. As fast as Tesla moves the government will be the bottleneck in this case…maybe 2060 if it even makes sense for his end goal.
@jake lami i think thats wrong, hell imma quote Elon Musk himself (remembre the quote is not 100% accurate but basically same sht” “Any prediction we make today about 50 years in the future will be wrong” and i think thats pretty right after all did the people who invented the plane think that in 70 they would be on the moon? no, ofc not they prob thought in a 50 years the plane might take them over the US with passengers or sht like that not go to the moon with a bloody rocket
@PetterJY I think you missed my point which is basically similar to yours.
It doesn’t make any sense to have a gigafactory in every state once the cars (and semis) can drive themselves 😉
@jake lami ahh, thats what u meant lol, thoguht u meant they wouldnt be able to do it withink 2060😂
@PetterJY No worries. I think I worded my message poorly.
No doubt he COULD do it but about 50% of the genius in a head like Elon’s is his aptitude for choosing what SHOULD be done…otherwise he’d have retired after paypal and just be another .com billionaire.
The AI in telsa and rivkin will try to run each other of the road
lol
Tesla is looking for cheap labor
Tesla needs engineers willing to work as hard as they can to get humanity to level 1
Robots work for free, work harder than liberals and don’t whine. Tesla pays their employees very well and all get stock options. Those who took the options are doing very very well. Thank you Elon..
5.000 labors ı think win for Texas.
2000 this summer.
3000 next year.
Mr. Wood was interviewed this week by Spiro Skouras of Activist Post, and he stated:
The whole world right now is laboring under the same issues that we are laboring in our country. That is, the Great Panic of 2020…
The technocrats who are pushing technocracy globally have finally succeeded in springing the trap on the entire planet.
And in the process, they have shut down the entire global economic system.
Around the world people in other countries are looking to America to save the world…. and it’s not going to be our government that does it, it’s the American citizens like you and me….
Technocracy is not all that new, and has been around since the 1930s here in the U.S.
In their publication The Technocrat published in 1938, they defined “technocracy” as:
the science of social engineering, the scientific operation of the entire social mechanism to produce and distribute goods and services to the entire population of this continent.
Mr. Wood explains that technocracy was not developed as a political structure.
It was not a political system. They hated politicians. They wanted to do away with the entire political structure, and simply manage the economy.
They wanted to do it using what they call this “science of social engineering.”
Mr. Wood gives some examples of contemporary technocrats who are involved in the “science of social engineering”:
Dr. Anthony Fauci
Al Gore
Robert McNamara, the Secretary of Defense during the Vietnam war
Bill Gates
Elon Musk
Eric Schmidt (Google)
Jeff Bezos (Amazon.com)
Wood says:
These people are not communists. They’re not socialists, and they’re not Marxists.
They’re technocrats. (who believe in social engineering)
The goals of the technocrats today are embodied in the United Nations’s “sustainable development” goals and part of the New World Order agenda, which is primarily an economic system, and not a political system.
Tesla = the American Dream validated
100% agree.
Its not going to be profitable as long as certain people keep cooking the books run with the billions and stick it in cash before the stock bounces off the floor like a rubber check any one remember checks ?
ITS A BRAND OF HUMOR THAT HAS TO STAY FRESH WITH THE TIMES….
Huh
this is a way for the media to tie Musk and Trump together somehow, since Trump is their corporate puppeteers’ political enemy and All of Musk’s innovations from his companies can potentially put these corporations out of business, they need to vilify him any chance they get. No wonder Tesla is the most shorted company in history.
This is also a way for Musk to win over a lot of red state people. Look at a lot of the comments.
It’s not the left that needs persuading, it’s the right. And Musk seems to be gaining their support.
nice job Elon and President Trump. made in America! boycott china!!!! congrats Texas!
Tesla already have a Gigafactory in China just so you know. So your comment doesn’t make sense
Tesla, the makers of the golf cart with A/C. Sorry, but the rich don’t like your car anymore and the normal people can’t afford the car.
Let’s go Tesla and let’s go trump !!
Go Trump, Go Tesla /Elon Musk (out of California) .
Tesla better be more respect cup when sitting in front of our President Donald J. Trump.
Elon please make all 18 wheelers green evergreen…we need clean air. No fuel .. only electric batteries and powerful solar panels if needed.. that won’t cost a fortune..bathrooms for the drivers.. automatic backing..and runs safely if the driver needs to sleep. This will make you so Rich.oh the truck needs to run faster and safer..cams every just in case the four wheelers are texting and cause an accident..which is 90 % of all accidents.
Texas is gonna turn into an uglier California.
These labors will be pro TRump.
Factory is in Travis not in Austin.
Travis county is pro TRump.
5. 000 job.
Good news.
Elon “the banks are propping me up keeping me solvent while a fraudulent market pumps my fake stock” Musk
Put the bong down…
2 crooks patting each other on the back for the world to see,back then they did it in secret
Great choice….depending on the results of the next election…Texas may secede from the Union and Tesla would also be free from the Kalifornios stupidity if they as much as sneeze.
hmmm looks like Republican states thrive while Democrat ones burn.
@Evan Hanks Death rates still on the decline hopefully. What matters is that people recover.
seems like it.
@Evan Hanks spread within the youth with low mortality rate so you good
@Thomas Kaluzi 6000 dead a week. Up 20% from 6 weeks ago. Does that mean “decline” to you?
Yes, Florida is kicking ass. Without a massive blue state bailout Florida will go bankrupt
YA Elon and Trump
Elon tesla mafiosos bandido
Trumptard is not for Tesla, Trumptard is for oil n coal
Both are awesome 👍 people
elon musk the robot that is leading us to destruction lol.
Don’t understand how come Trump is not aware that that negative cyborg Musk is deceptive, his factory will be building parts for his intention to turn humanity into cyborgs that can be AI and mind controlled. Along with his Neurolink’s transhumanism Agenda. I wouldn’t even want to enter one of his “cars” even if it was free, but he’ll make the stupid money grabbing socialites pay big time for his privilege of controlling them like sheep. It is all part of Agenda21/30. Between him, gates and the other DS. He boldly boasts what “he” is gonna do to humans, pretty much like gates (of hell) boldly states what he intends to do with humans…how he intends to depopulate the planet from 7.8 billion down to about 250k to 500k using his vaccines and releasing man-made biological warfare upon people etc. then there are other cabals destroying the land and sky with chemtrails, floods etc.
Elon Musk is a Russian Bot
well no Union..if not I ll move..plus tax insensitive
Yeah let’s get that factory up funded by taxpayer dollars I bet musk didn’t use a dollar of his own money, maybe Jiminy Cricket McConnell can help out also cut Social Security and fund corporate bailouts
i hate elon musk
Californian Exodus really starting to hurt
They deserve it . They are keeping voting the same terrible administration. Fires everywhere , power outages lol even Mexico city is in a better shape .
Kansas needs a giga factory.
Musk of shame! Curse Dos Tres! Suffer magnolia! Suffer USA! Suffer Tesla! Suffer gERMANY! Curse all switzerland humanoid serial killer! Poison RENE! aytin animals!
I hope Elon Knows that Marijuana is classified as a group 2 substance. In Texas, anyone caught with high-THC marijuana faces potential jail and/or a fine.
yeah, him and joe rogan gonna have to keep it low profile
Yeah, I watched that podcast. As someone who smoked pot for years, believe me, he hasn’t. 🤣
He looked like a geek trying to fit in with the cool kids. Kinda funny, really.
Everybody trashing on California number 1 your stupid give us back that iphone that daddy California gave you and number 2 hes building a new factory not replacing his old one idiots tesla is still gonna be in California tesla headquarters are still gonna remain California.
Elon , dont come to Texas and try to turn it into the sh-t hole your leaving. Remember your leaving CA for a reason ! Let Texas be Texas and you will have a long good run here, but turn Texas into the Liberal disaster California is and youll have to move again… Embrace OUR culture , integrate into OUR way of doing things … don’t destroy what we have here.
I’m in cali working in the tesla plant right now in Fremont, if the conditions are right I’m out to Texas! Im young and the rent out there is cheap so it would be a great opportunity!🙏🏼
