    It’s a lot of different things driving him out. The same things that have been sending other business out of California for years. Not to mention driving thousands of people away as well. High cost regulations, high cost of living, lower living standards etc.

    I’m pretty sure Sheriffs’ patrol cars can’t chase him in space orbit. There’s a Tesla gettaway car up there waiting..

    Elon will not move the actual plant. He talked about *FUTURE* investments.

      he spoke of moving HQ and the plant, and as far as i see his records, that’s exactly what he is going to do. HQ first, and the plant step by step afterwards. he’s an engineer he will see it as a challenge

    Better open up!! We all need to get back to work and open this economy back up. If your sick stay home. This is all just common sense. Trump 2020

    Another institutionalized feminist from the lame stream media siding with the “state” as being the adults in the room. Don’ t make me laugh. These dirty dems have no idea what’s coming in Nov…

    Impeachments, FBI investigations, imprisonment, lies spread by the media, and threats of imprisonment have been used by the DNC against their enemies. Would they refrain from using COVID 19 as a tool? Nope. 66% of hospitalized COVID 19 patients in NYC contracted it under lockdown. If quarantine/ lockdown doesn’t work, why destroy the economy? Vote Democrat and this is what you get, a future Venezuela.

    A more measured response. And the representative lady that tweeted “F*ck you” ?

    Yeah, but the state said he could open…county vs state…i think he’s in the right. There go more jobs bc Alameda county wants to ignore the economic issue.

    It’s been months, not weeks. If Alameda County can’t figure it out by now, it’s time to get moving. Of course CA should support Tesla. Otherwise no car companies will be left.

    Don’t blame Elon one bit. Surprised he held out this long

    Thanks Elon for standing up for our constitutional rights that are being taken away by tyrants.

    There’ll be nothing to buy with stimulus money if nobody anywhere is allowed to make stuff we can buy.

    have you seen BMW South Carolina plant create a new auto line in the building. It’s crazy quick, a few days. Everything is now modular. Elon can do this in under a year without batting a eye.

    This man is not a bluffer. He continually does the proper things . Too bad the government doesn’t follow this mans lead and start doing things right.
