Let's give Elon Musk billions more in tax payer subsidies!

"Let's give Elon Musk billions more in tax payer subsidies!"

Great idea!

Hey...how about if we BORROW TRILLIONS MORE, and go into even greater debt, all to give over half of it away to the world's wealthiest .1%?

They are going to be begging for a bailout by the end of tis year.

Torch and Pitchfork futures are going up.

I'm just waiting for the margin call when TeSSla stock plummets. All the MAGAdiots who can't afford one, and who for years has been vehemently against EVs, must be thrilled with swasticars now that the demented rapist felon made his sales pitch at the White House, LOL.

I'm sure the felon 47 hasn't paid any income tax for many years either.

This is hilarious, I am betting every Lumper here was for federal EV subsidies when Tesla was selling cars on the backs of the middle class.

2010 Lumpers: Tesla is saving the planet! Climate deniers!

2020 - Just How Much Does Tesla Get In Subsidies Anyways?

Tesla received $0.4 billion of federal loans and bailout support via the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) Loan Program. However, that amount was repaid in full with interest, almost a decade early. The federal loan Tesla received was for $465.5 million and was granted in 2010 " the first recovery year after the 2009 financial crisis.

Tesla is a suicide, you unconscionable idiot. Herr Musk has pulled the trigger on himself.

#10 | Posted by Corky at 2025-03-13 03:18 PM

Seems fair to me, considering that Elon is just a lowly multibillionaire, and he, his son Klingon and the incoherent orange golfer are working hard every day to save America from stability.

Only peasants pay income tax.

From the linked article 'Elon Musk's company avoided almost all federal income tax on nearly $11 billion of U.S. income over three years'. It wasn't Obama running the country during the Biden/Harris admin (2022, 2023 and 2024), it was Trump all along. The secret it out.

Nobody claims Tessla is killing the planet, we're just not into neo Nazis. EVs are still important tools in the climate change battle, we just don't need to buy them from a Bond villain. Your straw man is absurd.

You're a moron.

1LUMPER2 sure does like to create strawmen to argue against.

I don't like when any company gets around paying taxes. No matter who is president.

#18 | Posted by cbob at 2025-03-13 03:56 PM

GacyAmazed is a conspiracy theory embracing cultists who believes Biden's presidency was actually Obama's 3rd term.

The derp is strong with that one.

How can anyone, Right or Left, not be offended by the reality that Tesla has not paid taxes for years. It is incomprehensible. Everyone should be angry. Especially rightwingers who always claim that the Fed government is full of waste.

Tesla pens 'polite' letter to team dotard that tariffs are 'screwing over' Musk's company

When things like this become expected they cease to be offended. Sadly

Everyone in the market did. Unless you listened to trump like a moron and dumped all your stocks because biden was going to cause a recession.

I love thinking about all the trumpers that did that, missed out on terrific gains, and then REINVESTED when trump won, only to have trump crush their investments on purpose. Hilarious!

--------------- invested all the money she made taking back Jack Daniels bottles for the deposit.

A hefty sum. No wonder she doesn't need Social Security.

Are libs upset about the tax credit Tesla buyers get? Are they calling for that to end so people can go back to gas vehicles?

Is there anything else libs might oppose tesla for? Think really hard.

Good luck with that one. The last time bullsucker "thought hard" the ER had to buy him a new pair of pants.

People big mad at absentee owner.

Not the decade of lies about everything, pump & dumps, artificial market cap, farcical positioning as a "tech company" and "solar company" and "energy company"...

Tesla still has 40% more downside even after tumbling 50% since December

Tesla is going down like Putin's orange bitch did in Helsinki.

No.
