  1. kbray in california says:

    Tesla stock has also overheated.

  2. kbray in california says:

    I see CO2 coming out of that zero emissions vehicle.
    There’s no free lunch.

  3. Avery Harden says:

    Some of us would like to encourage inovation toward a less carbon based energy future. Glitches and subsidies are to be expected. The oil and gas industry get a lot more subsidies than the new tech.

    • Star Trek did an episode about silicon based life in the early 1970s. A possible option for those of you who are concerned about our carbon based biosphere.

    • kbray in california says:

      Our planet was gifted with a carbon cycle.
      It keeps us alive.
      It’s prudent to embrace it.

    • Oil and gas industry pays taxes you globtard. Tax write off ? subsidy

    • stewart pid says:

      This green lie is getting old. The oil industry pays billions in taxes and royalties. Name a “subsidy” please. I call bullshit you liar.

    • Andy Oz says:

      Bobby Sands embraced a carbon free lifestyle in the 80’s. He lasted about 2 months or so. The Irish are always living on the edge.

    • Justa Joe says:

      Avery, It would be more accurate to say that the oil and gas industry subsidize the government.

      Where is it exactly libtards think wealth comes from?

    • gator69 says:

      “Some of us would like to encourage inovation toward a less carbon based energy future.”

      And those same some are deluded, looking for grants, stupid, or combinations of those ‘qualities’. If you actually study the history of the Earth, we could use more CO2, and not less. 17 years of zero warming as CO2 levels have reached ‘unprecedented’ levels. πŸ˜†

      Obviously CO2 is not a major driver of climate, and this interglacial is quite long in the tooth. We should celebrate any warming that our CO2 may be capable of producing, as we will eventually need it.

      Have you never heard of ice ages? Do you think cooling or warming is a greater danger? When has the Earth ever overheated? And why not? Why do you hate humans? Are you as stupid as you pretend to be?

    • Li’l advice for commenter Avery Harden: You were doing fine with your first two sentences, truisms that they were. The roof caved in on you with the last sentence. You are more than welcome to say such things, but if you wish to have a devastating impact, you must be prepared to back up what you say with real evidence. Otherwise, you will appear foolish, looking like someone who can offer little more than unsubstantiated talking points. This always undermines any good intentions you may have.

    • EW3 says:

      You want to go carbon free, go for it.
      But don’t you dare tell me to do the same.

    • EW3 says:

      Meant to say:

      You want to go carbon free, go for it.
      But don’t you dare tell me to do the same. Who do you think you are?
      You are not my wife nor my girlfriend nor my mistress. You have no standing.

    • “Glitches and subsidies are to be expected.”

      Unless they are obvious catastrophes that weren’t addressed up front because of the attempts of apologists to ignore the harm. Time will tell.

      “The oil and gas industry get a lot more subsidies than the new tech.”

      I’ve looked into research into this and this talking point is actually a myth. In some cases the oil and gas business may receive tax breaks, which means they would pay, in particular cases, less tax. This is worlds apart from an actual subsidy where a business is unprofitable and it’s actually funded by citizen taxes.

  4. James Anderson says:

    There is no scientific reason to go to a less carbon based energy future unless we run out of oil, gas and coal which in the US would be in about 200 years.

    • stewart pid says:

      Are you sure … how many false alarm “we are running out of” have you already lived through?
      Besides, you think we need to throw common sense and logic out the window and increase the costs of everything because of a problem a hundred years from now? Where did you study economics … Nitwit U ?

  5. Okie says:

    Tesla received $465 million in federal subsidies before they even began production, and Tesla receives approximately $45,000 in federal and state subsidies for each car they sell. This is a scam from start to burning finish.

  6. geologyjim says:

    Doesn’t look good for the sales brochure … … .. not good at all

  7. glenncz says:

    One of the YouTube commenters wrote “THEY should get him a new car”. Uncle Sam probably chipped in 100K for the burning one, so what’s another 100K to keep trying.

  8. stewart pid says:

    Tesla … the Ford Pinto of the new millennium πŸ˜‰

  9. John Silver says:

    iPhone owners are so stupid that they can’t even turn their phones sideways to record a video.

  10. Bob Knows says:

    A Tesla car cost way more than $60,000. More than double that much

    • stewart pid says:

      They list at $57,400 to $105,400 in a car mag I have in my office. The battery size is the big difference but there are others.

  11. stewart pid says:

    The S in Tesla S stands for spontaneous πŸ˜‰
    I’m quite proud of that one … it just popped into the noggin while sparing with the leftards on the Bloomberg.

  12. R. de Haan says:

    Fire Sale: Brand New Tesla Electric Car, Non Smoker…oeps, I have to take that back.

  13. Avery Harden says:

    Sounds like you all are against innovation if a “liberal” is for it. The world can not continue to dig and suck all the carbon out of the earth and dump it into the thin fragile biosphere and expect nothing bad to happen. Remember we are 7 billion people and soon to be 9 billion and many of those people aspire to American style lifestyles of consuming far more than they do today. Innovation is what will save us, carbon will kill us.
