Tesla will move its headquarters to Texas, Elon Musk says

Even in Austin they're a different breed than CA, I hear.

It's the big issue for red states: how do you attract investment and citizens without attracting leftist voters who will turn TX into where they came from

 

I would say your business that wants to produce products to gain a profit is pretty much exactly what conservatives want. I welcome Elon musk here and his jobs.

The idea that it will only hire far left us that probably won't work to work for him is absurd to me.

I know people kind of have this idea that electric cars are a liberal thing but if I was an electrical engineer or an automotive engineer and a job became available it wouldn't matter to me if it was designing electric cars.

Generally speaking engineers and tech professionals tend to be more conservative maybe not vote for Republicans all the time conservative but definitely not gender studies PhD left either.

No one said don't let these peoples wishful thinking front you businesses are built on more conservative values. People who want to make money develop things and produce more are typically capitalist's which ends of late seems to be synonymous with conservative for some reason.

As far as keeping the leftists out that's easy just don't provide giveaway programs. A very very tiny minority of the Democrat Party is actually well educated. They depend on people in poverty to get elected that's why they are always promising free stuff to them.

Another way is arrest people for trafficking and using drugs. The smart people will do them behind closed doors the idiots will have to move to Portland or Seattle.

 

Not too much other then when their power grid collapsed this past winter (in which deaths among the population occurred), It took them an inordinate amount of time to get it up and running and the "educated" people in Texas couldn't figure out how to properly design one that would allow a quick recovery and since they did not find a way to route in power from the border states (to save money they on purpose did not allow for emergency routing system for power) left them in a dreadful state in some of the coldest weather they'd experienced in years.

Other than that, not too much else.

 

Oh, some years ago, but it had nothing to do with politics.

 

Well since he came from California he's moving up in intelligence.

How long has California been on fire? That state can't even handle firefighting.

A power outage statewide last year isn't really anything compared to oppressive government, that is so incompetent it can't manage its wildlands.

 

That's all fine and dandy I just think we believe different things. My opinion is if you come to work drunk and you put others lifes in danger on purpose then at the very minimum you dont deserve to be employed.

 

I won't say much other then most of the time the fire was caused by an act of god whereas the power failure was mostly caused by incompetency and poor design.

 

I certainly think you could make that argument, especially if you put other lives in danger. I more or less was assuming in general if someone was intoxicated in a non-life threatening situation such as sitting at their desk passed out due to drinking.

 

You're aware that Telsa doesn't make gas guzzling machines, but fancy left wing liberal electric cars, right?
As noted by the main liberal CEO of the place, the prices of housing is just too high for their general staff...
So they are all moving their liberal butts to cheap right wing place.

Tesla is the panicle of progressive liberalism. No doubt they will start to indoctrinate their idea's in backward conservative Texas.

 

You can leave God out of it. It's just climate change = things getting dryer (the lakes are just down right empty) ... and then lightning strikes the place causing a massive fire. Lots of pine trees there, and that stick sap they produce... it's rather flameble.

As for the power failure...
That has to do with a design that used to work, but never got upgraded to meet future demands.
It's simply far more sexy to make a profit and pass it around among the management + have share holders their cut.
All hail short term success and what do we do with it in a capitalistic world.

 

I know Tesla and Musk left because of the dirtbag leftist politics in CA.

And he relocated to the blue area around Austin.

 

Known the furniture typically caused by incompetence. Federal money is allocated to California for Forest management. They just don't do it.

 

Understood. Even to me that is completely different even though I believe it's wrong still but to a lesser degree. My personal view of seeing people keep their jobs after threating other peoples lives on the job activates me and again, personally only have seen it in union shops.

 

It's too bad that people do that in the first place since it gives the union a "black eye" and reflects discredit upon it. I've witnessed it on one or two times in my life from people from both sides throughout my working career. In both both of them were rehabbed and returned to work within 6 months and were clean. But I also can agree that not ever situation ends like that.

 

It's awesome the companies rehabbed them. In non union favoritism is a bigger issue I've seen and one of the biggest issues when comparing to unions. I believe unions have a time and place as well not all union is a bad thing.

 

I told someone in here that the best thing for both companies to do would be to form a working partnerships where both sides interests are addressed and respected. What they can achieve industrial relations wise is phenomenal.

 

Looks to me like it more about CA's covid restrictions: "Back in May 2020, Musk said in a series of tweets that Tesla would move the company's headquarters to Texas or Nevada. That came after a dispute between Musk and Alameda County, California, officials over the safety of Tesla's Fremont factory due to the coronavirus pandemic." Covid restrictions arent technically political, but I think we all know they are actually political. Musk is moving his business somewhere that isn't petrifying its industry with fear of the flu.

 

You say that, while Telsa/Musk say something else.
It's not a hard choice to pick who we are going to believe.

 

It wasn't exactly Gods hand that we are pumping green house gasses in the air as if there is no tomorrow and think it will not have any effect.

Politicians do not control the amount of rain, and the immense draught that makes these immense forests to be a bonfire ready to ignite.
I know that "Cheetos man bad" ones said something like that they should be picking leaves like they do in Finland to prevent fires.
It's pure nonsense. Finland, a country covered by forests, doesn't do anything like that. They only respond when a fire happens.

 

It's not God and it's not a global warming the boogeyman. It's political incompetence.

Even if greenhouse gases somehow managed to fabricate fire which doesn't make any kind of sense. It wouldn't have anywhere to burn if incompetent morons that ran that state would manage the forest.

do control with it or not they clear out under Bush they're not doing that because they're incompetent. California idiots in the government can't even figure out how ports work California is failing completely and totally right now they can't seem to do anything. It's like they regressed to the Stone age.

 

Rather easy to understand that the man made climate change, led to a massive draught in the CA forest, making the whole place ready to ignite in a massive bon fire.

They manage the forest, not the climate.

clear out under bush???? what?

CA state politicians do not run the port in LA.

 

actually if you manage the land and there happens to be a fire igniting it's much easier to control.

You can blame everything else in the world but it all boils down to incompetent government

 

I live 25-miles from Austin - it is a liberal feces hole that is trying to be a made-in-China version of 1968 Greenwich Village NY replete with Dr. Zeus-hat-wearing social rejects that believe that b.o. is a perfume/cologne and being completely repulsive to normal people is a virtue.

Austin is the one place in Texas that masks should be mandatory so that normal decent people do not catch Austin's liberal brain disease. I NEVER go there unarmed.

 

Cheeto man suggested to do what the Finnish people do and pick the leaves.
And even they, totally covered by forests do not do that.

What it boils down to, is that politicians do not manage the wheater.
A draught is a draught. And you're slow in understanding that them lot don't do rain dances.
