When they announced that they will buy 100k despite being in a dire financial situation a few years ago, I knew that it would be an epic failure for them. Looks like to be confirmed.
But 2 other things shock me in this story:
First that the cars are still valued at 20k despite being a little bit old and used for rental when you know that like expectancy of Tesla is not that long without costly repairs.
Second, even if I'm not an American tax payer, is that the gov will give back 4k if you buy one, supporting the effort of this company to recoup their loss despite them totally not deserving it.
- plagiarist 2y agoMassive handouts to corporations that neither need nor deserve them is one of the few things our government can be relied on for. At least this one is not direct. This one seems like an unfortunate consequence that it's hard to give out any subsidy without benefiting some large business.
