      I think Tesla has an installed based that no one building chargers can ignore - so he is perhaps being astute, though selfish, in maximizing profit, and letting someone else go for the charging market since Tesla does not have to.

      Yeah, the market really disappeared. They sold 1,880,700 in 2023, yup One Million, Eight Hundred and Eighty Thousand, 700 EV's. Not Hybrids like some of the companies sell and count them as EV's, real EV's. That would be another new record by the way. Fanboys, people with facts talking back to someone who is ignorant of the facts. Everyone thinks Tesla lost money in the 1st qtr of 2024 based on headlines from the fake news. For Tesla it was a weak qtr, they only made 1.13 BILLION Dollars profit for the qtr. Many reason for that drop from 4 billion a qtr. Retooling a couple of factories, fires set at the plant in Germany, bought a Billion dollars of Nividia chips to expand AI, Spending billions to bring Optimus robots to market, building a lithium plant, all out of profits, not borrowing money to do it. Has been building one or two plants per year at about 6 Billion each. Mega Packs had a record year, look them up. Yeah, a sign of Tesla's demise.

      Yeah the 2500 military veterans he hired then laid off after 10 months of hiring them The state gave him a 10k tax break per military veteran if he kept them for 9 months. Then when he hired them he gave them all 8k in tesla stocks that matured in 12 months. Guess what they tooknall of them back from everyone and cashed them in. So not only did they make 10k 2500 military vet tax break but 8k in stocks they took back THE BIGGEST SCAM ever. After that Military employment help for veterans took Tesla off their list immediately.
