- hamburglar 13y agoAnd GM got a $49 billion TARP bailout. Not specifically for making alt-fuel vehicles; just because they were a failure. But we should all be really incensed about those tesla guys getting a loan. Which they repaid already. Because that's not fair.
- samolang 13y agoI am upset that the government is wasting my money like this. I don't think Tesla is being unfair by applying for and accepting the loan though. Tesla didn't tell Bush to tell the DOE to loan $25B to green automakers. They're merely taking advantage of the opportunities that are available.
