So, Fins, as an obvious conservative... in your own words, why the big pushback and hatred from conservatives, and the Koch brothers against Tesla?
In a prior Tesla thread a year or two ago you were all about what horrible cars they are and they would not succeed.
What is your main issue with them?
I know the conservative party sees them as some sort of threat.
BTW the model S is faster in the quarter mile than an M5. Not bad for a family sedan.
We are about electronics here at RC. Shouldn't we be supportive of this technology?
The reason the Koch brothers are against Tesla is that they are oil industry. The Koch brothers seem to have a lot of pull in the conservative media (IE Keystone) and thus help set the mindset. If you're conservative you (like everyone else) tend to believe what you're told in your favored media.
However I think Fins main issue is that when you're one one side of the issue, he's on the other. ;)
