I'm 100% sure he has to really really restrain himself from not commenting on the election. Probably has a team of his hired autists look into it.

Because for him - just like for everyone that's into space flight - a Biden presidency would be really bad news.

A country that turns into a socialist third world can't pay for space flight. If every country turns into a poor third world country, which is where we are heading, then the idea of seeking out the stars will be something left for movies.

Generally bidens plans for NASA are bullshit. Trump will get us back to the moon in four years. Biden would invest heavily into "climate science" bullshit.

I live next to the Nevada Gigafactory. IMO Tesla brought in THOUSANDS of liberals to NV.

When I worked there, If you said TRUMP at tesla. it was like saying a politacally uncorrect word. You would be chastised and ridiculed. Probably why the fired me...That and calling out their "engineers" for gross incompetence.

Corporations tend to engage in group think like crazy. Unlike the government, they tend to at least accomplish something. But they are their own kind of messed up.

Yes, I'd have to say Tesla is accomplishing something, but is definitely a mess. I have never seen such a vast level of incompetence in my 50+ years, than I saw while working at Tesla, but I do hope them the best.

Musk is an idea man. He's also really good at promoting things. This means he gets tons in investment. The problem is that other than paying for it, none of these things benefits the actual manufacturing process.

You bigot! How dare you dream of going into space, developing new technologies, and finding new resources, to allow the continued expansion and develop of the human race, improving the lives of everyone! We are supposed to be imprisoned on earth with our overlord elites rationing all resources to allow them to live in constant luxury while we live in dirt and eat soylant green.
