Musk in In 1998 interviewed while hes making paypal, He says he sees business as a high stakes poker game. I think sometimes he bluffs and sometimes hes got a good hand. From what Ive read solar city innovated the space significatly. Still hes got the most chips at the table. (Space X is the bluff Right now tho... blue oracle looks more impressive) tesla tho come on its a status symbol already and america consumers are attracted to shiny new things with status associations. Also, about the subsidized aspect, all fortune 500 companies are subsidized, look at how much corporate wellfare is given to JpMorgan Chase, Amazon.com, or even the other American car companies in 2008. Musk is just playing the game infront of him.

it won't last. This is part of the reason the stocks are in all time highs.
Whats not going to last, the world economy? Because I would agree that as a whole its unsustainable. But to point at Tesla and say theyre fucked up when they just play the same game all of their competitors play . . Thats not wrong its just playing the hand your’re given.
