IMO Musk is more like if Ronald Wayne had joined late and started being called founder through a lawuit settlement over something bad he had done, then took over and bailed out his cousin's company he had a financial interest in using a fraudulent merger. Maybe with the energy/grid connection more of a Kenneth Lay.
- onethought 5y agoFraudulent merger that was voted for by 85% of shareholders? That has done nothing but increase Shareholder value. Yep, absolute criminals!
- cma 5y agoFraud can increase shareholder value when a company is in speculative stages. Cheaper than a normal roof!
- onethought 5y agoSo what was the fraud?
- cma 5y agoOne part was the fake shingle demo.
- onethought 5y agoI'm confused which one you mean, shingle is not a term used in my locale. The roof tiles? Are the roof tiles fake?
- cma 5y agoYeah the demoed roof tiles pushing through the SolarCity acquisition were fake mockups. Later they never got them to work near the price point that pushed the deal through and now have a redesign making them close to the size of small panels.
- onethought 5y agoAnd it’s certain it was fraud and not r&d not able to achieve the results they initially thought they could?
- cma 5y agoSimilar to a kickstarter for a useful hoverboard.
