What? A scientist who is critical of Trump?? How can that be???

They want to declare the courts undemocratic, and when the resistance from the courts is all gone, they destroy democracy completely, to make the President a totalitarian dictator.

What’s the worst that could happen?

Paywall

The stupidity was always ingrained in American racial politics combined with extreme Christianity.
Leading to falsification of historic events, and denial of science especially evolution. Resulting in awful moral standards based on 2000 year old principles.
In that regard USA is more like Iran than Europe. Except Iran doesn’t have the white supremacist problem. So USA may actually be worse.
How can you trust anything, when you can’t trust your teachers and basic education?
Americans are stupid because the majority wants to keep it that way.

Is it really still news that USA has gone crazy?

Sorry I asked the same on another story that was also crazy, but this one is even crazier! 🤡

I think you are right that this Tesla boycott is unique, nothing I can remember is even close.
And what I remember goes back to the 80’s, with the Shell boycott because they supported apartheid in South Africa. That boycott was a huge deal back then. Where there was (light) vandalism, for instance removing the S from their signs, so they said hell.

But now with Tesla, it’s a completely different league in scope and consequences. Nice to see that there is a line also for ordinary sane people. Because this is definitely a response against the insanity of fascism.

Ah OK, I didn’t know that.

Isn’t that what they are already doing?
With no regard for how it harms others!

So it’s actually working!
That makes it more expensive to own a Tesla, and that’s one more thing that will make it less attractive to buy, either new or used.
It’s debatable whether this is fair, but clearly it achieves a political goal.

We have looked at several book covers, and everything seems fine.

Also consider that if you bought the stock mid December 2020, it’s the exact same value today!!!
That’s a return to where it was more than 4 years ago. 😋

Yes that’s a very weird story, I’m looking forward to hear what the investigation reveals.

And if you’re able to collect profits on future expected returns today

This is true, but it’s 99% a misunderstood perception by the buyers, they generally fail to realize that they are buying in at way higher risk.
Deregulation does not generally promote profits, even when it allows to cut cost.

In theory that could all sound very true.
But the investments need to pay themselves back, and setting up large agricultural production takes time to earn back the investment. So there are limits as to how short term you can invest.

This is probably the lowest denominator disease, where investments become more and more irresponsible, because of lack of regulation that set a lower bar for how irresponsible you can be.

Kind of the same as with the financial crisis almost 20 years ago, that caused an economic slump for 10 years. I wouldn’t be surprised if the egg market similarly will take a decade to return to normal.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Tesla chooses to cook the books.
It will be very strange if numbers aren’t in red.

Profits <> cost efficiency.
Obviously those that have eggs good enough to sell, like small producers, make more money. But those that had to put down all their chickens are more likely to go bankrupt.

The wise ones sold as much stock as possible.
Tesla stock is most likely to drop way more. Global sales being down about 50% for February, demands the stock must fall even more.
Even corrupt government contracts can’t compensate for the loss of global marketshare every Musk nut was so convinced would increase to a degree where Tesla would be bigger than all other car companies combined.

The stock price was always ridiculously high, and it still is.

driven by cost efficiency,

It’s not so cost efficient now is it?
Poor safety standards is a short term strategy.
