He is a well known scammer who conned his way to the top. And this is not even FSD, not even close...And his so called fans are a bunch of re**rds like the one below who actually believed this lie. The whole EV industry basically runs on government subsidies. There is no customer demand , no one wants to buy these toys
The oil and corn industries (the stuff that goes into the E85 gasoline) are also heavily subsidized. There is an EV market, maybe not as strong as Elon wants us to think. As for FSD, he needs it to keep pumping the stock price. It's going to work eventually, but I highly doubt it's going to be in Teslas.
