when i was 18 years old i was a libertarian for like 4 months. i believed in the magical unicorn farts that the free market would poop out if you just let it do its thing. the techno-utopia of muskism works the same way

I mean, being honest about the income from credits would mean theyre not a middling car company with loss-leading cars causing accidents all the time and requiring extensive guarantee work due to lovely QA, which they then do not correctly classify as a cost in their accounting. they would be a prop. trading fund. much like harvard is a hedge fund with a university as cover
