But of course I support private enterprise, comrade! The point that Elon Musk does not owe his status as a successful businessman or billionaire primarily to the government has been made. We also agree that much if not most new technology is not affordable. We don't agree on the desirability of making subsidies available to new technology, but you don't have reality on your side in that disagreement.
It does appear that the electric car tax credit was written for small car companies like him. Once production numbers reach a certain amount the subsidy disappears. Was this created to help gemake it easier for new entries into the electric car field? Or specificslly Tesla?

Brandon, perhaps you are confusing my comments with another blog. I don't agree that new technology is not affordable. Like you $999 million question, I am at a lost as to what your comment regarding reality means. Please explain.
