As an apparently “poor person” owner of model 3 bought used, who it seems “must drive” it - I dislike the whiff of elitism in your post. What must your world look like that you consider a 30K off-lease car a poor person’s last resort vehicl

I agree with what Buttigieg is doing, but I don’t think it's the same at all - coming to a hostile interview requires that overcoming adversity and displaying certain bravery. To continue having an account on twitter really doesn’t. I

The announcement of investing $500B with the proposed benefit of creating $100K jobs - to my amazement did not produce any commentary that I came across raising questions about the ROI of spending $5M per job created. I mean it’s all right
