    Yeah I wonder how many people work for Musk and pay taxes to California while building EVs that reduce pollution in California.

    California would've had to make that responsibility known up front. They chose not to do that. And California directly benefitted from the money they spent. That benefit is electri…

    Good point. I wonder how much expertise would actually transfer over from ICE manufacturers.

    Sure, but even for the average law abiding Californian it would be nice having one less government requirement to worry about. The part of me that likes freedom over safety likes t…

    So do people not need to renew their driver's license then? Or is there a fine? What if you don't pay the fine?

    From what I've heard, dealership don't like electric cars because they make their money off of maintainance and EVs require less.

    Having gone through it, the Tesla process makes it super easy to buy a car.

    Socializing what risk? What are you even talking about? Musk put his entire fortune from PayPal on the line for Tesla knowing that in all probability it would fail. It turned out w…

    IMO people are overreacting, both people who like and dislike California. Musk is an American citizen and as such can live wherever he likes within US borders. California will be f…

    That doesn't answer the question though, which was what percentage of clothes actually sell. I wasn't asking what happens if the clothes don't sell.

    But why turn around a legacy automaker, even if he thinks he could? It would have to fit into his greater strategy, e.g. providing branding for his EVs or providing auto workers th…

    That also means you can wear them forever though. You could probably wear out 3 cotton items for every one synthetic.

    That doesn't make much sense to me. The purpose black friday sales for companies seems to be 1.) to drive customers to their store where they will also buy non-sale items and 2.) t…

    Kandi was already planning to sell an $8000 electric car in California. I believe that includes subsidies and the car only gets 59 miles of range, but it's a start.
