Back in 2013 it was my dream to own a Tesla and not have a gas car. I was able to do it in 2018 and now that it’s paid off I don’t want to hop into another car payment.
I feel a sense of betrayal in that I thought we were all in it to help transition to cleaner energy usage and whatnot but instead it’s another speculative investment vehicle that only exists to make a few people stupidly richer.
I just want companies to turn into things that make valuable products and aren’t only focused on “stock number go up”
Amen to all of that. I never did have the chance to buy one but that was my dream car for years, obviously until the recent betrayal.
But the larger point about companies making products - I feel like some serious reform needs to happen but I really have no idea where one would start. I do know that we need to be sure lawmakers aren’t benefitting from the companies they’re supposed to be policing, that’d be a massive start. But in the end, the free market as they sold it to us is a massive failure and gets worse every year and I just hope people realize that the ‘socialism’ they’re demonizing is the thing that would most help make the economy more right for them.
