Wait what? Tesla isn't going under... they are about to send a Tesla car to Mars.
Elon Musk isn't going to let his baby die.
He is certainly the greatest con man of this era. Take a look at the history of the company, it has never even come close to turning a profit. Everytime bankruptcy looms he trots out a "new" latest, greatest product to sucker in the faithful yet again. It is the second most successful Ponzi scheme in history. That is for sure.
Con man? He's done something NASA could never do.
No, he hasn't. He has some very good engineer's, I will grant you that, but he is the new model of billionaire. You silly people whine about the koch bros. who actually provide a product that the entire world needs and uses, and this fraud has made his "billions" by stealing money from you, me, and every other citizen of the USA.
Elon Musk's Space X is being used by the Government to deliver items to space because they can do it much more effectively and cheaper... because they can reuse rockets due to the fact they figured out how to land the rockets upon re-entry, something NASA couldn't figure out.
Calling a man a con man that has been so successful and done things that one of the top space agencies in the world can't do, is absurd.
You just don't like green reusable energy or items involved with it.
