Won’t be any salmon either. Just when we got them back into some long-extinct waterways, too.

Can’t wait.

Of course. There were countless reasons to reject him the first time. There were even more the second time. And none of them mattered.

You make good points. I’m curious how much of those costs include the up-front (pre-production) costs of development, setting up manufacturing sites, hiring/training workers, and so on. Tesla has been making more EVs for longer, so those up-front costs per unit will be more diluted.  At least that thought process…

Good god the next four years are going to be idiotic.

It hopefully won’t be permanent. I’m thinking of it as a “gap administration.” I don’t want to live through all the stupid that’s about to happen. And I don’t have to.
