@SenSanders @grok Sanders way or this way better?

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@SenSanders If you spent as much time on the problems as you do on finger pointing you may actually do something with your wasted 50 years in office. Fix housing and most of these go away. https://t.co/g0Ipy8ZLjB

@Zorx_Prime @antikommunistic It has very little to with IQ and more to do with emotion. Smart people can make bad choices when emotions rule their thinking. Create an enemy and economic pain then dangle the carrot.

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole I'm not mad at all. If I gave you that impression I'm sorry. Again I think you have the right to feel/think anyway you want. Thought and facts are important to me and I wouldn't take that away from anyone. I feel mostly sadness for some people is all.

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole Your free to think what you like I'm fine with that. Life is hard enough as it is. Do yourself a favor and stop thinking with emotion. It's so much harder navigating when you don't understand how things work around you. I wish you the best man.

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole You tell me its your fantasy

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole ok so that's available to you right now go get those government credits that's paid for by automakers that is now taxes. I mean they are just handing it out candy to any Idiot. So you should be able to score big. Your welcome4

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

What billions did he get ? If your still talking about ~$11.4 billion in regulatory/automotive credits (ZEV, CAFE, etc.) sold to other automakers. that's not government money. You can do this yourself if you wish all you have to do is :

Key Requirements to Earn and Sell ZEV Credits
You must be a certified manufacturer recognized by the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
This involves submitting vehicles for testing, certification, and compliance with safety, emissions, durability, and labeling rules. It's not something an individual or garage builder can easily do.
Credits are earned only when you produce and deliver/sell certified ZEVs in ZEV states (California + states that follow its rules).
Credits per vehicle depend on battery range (e.g., longer-range EVs can earn up to 4 credits each). One car doesn't equal one credit.
You can then sell excess credits to larger automakers who need them to meet mandates.

~20–22% of new businesses fail/close within the first year (so ~80% survive year 1).
~49–50% fail by year 5.
~65% fail by year 10.
Yes both Tesla and Spacex came very close, It's not easy Add the fact he was running extremely hard to make companies... He beat the odds and you hate him I get it.

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@titandude21 @realajedelman over 20 years that 110 sex crimes a day. Even in jail he would way outperform you and so you would be forced to hate him still.

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@realajedelman I think his car is orbiting Mars right now so I think your math is off.

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@titandude21 @realajedelman Wow the guy is badass. How the hell he find the time to do that ?

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@titandude21 @realajedelman God forbid someone gets paid for services rendered. What has this world come too?

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole I'm not sure why you think this is bad? Do you understand why the government does this? It's not really Good or Bad just a way to control an outcome.

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole No I think he got payed for his services ... Its ok if you hate Elon Musk I'll respect you for just saying that. But making things up just makes you look uneducated

In his 1971 campaign for the U.S. Senate (as a long-shot independent in Vermont), Sanders called it "immoral" that about half the U.S. senators were millionaires. He argued they served the interests of "corporations and big business—their fellow millionaires" rather than ordinary people.

Bernie Sanders became a millionaire around 2016

Attacks on billionaires as a class effectively started gaining traction around 2014–2015 and became central to his national brand in the 2016 campaign

Tesla was the major beneficiary of the EV tax credit. This was given to the people buying the EV so it was cheaper. The point was to sell more EV's. Tesla still had to make the car and sold it for the same price. Yes they probably sold more cars (benefitted) from this. This was available to anyone buying a car from any manufacturer that fell in a certain price range. Governments do this all the time.

@MrDrewbles @FireNewz @TheRabbitHole @grok How much has NASA (taxpayers) saved using spacex vers traditional companies that NASA has used in the past?

[Morrigon @Morrigon36]

You post is indicating it isn't his money because it is tax money even though it was paid for services due. How would you suggest spacex be paid for their contracts?

Note that much of the funding (especially for SpaceX) consists of paid contracts for services like rocket launches, cargo/crew transport to the ISS, and satellite work — not pure “free money,”
