You have to be kidding.
Tesla has a supercharger that charges 80% in 40 minutes or less. Likewise, their batteries are not only, the cheapest per KW, but also lasting the longest of any li-ion in vehicles.
Spacex is working towards landing first stage as well as the capsule and re-using it quickly. Nobody had a pusher abort system that can be used for landing on earth as well as mars and the moon. In addition, nobody has done a full stage methane engine, but Tesla is testing theirs now.
now, we have solar city. At this time, I would not call them innovative, but that could change.
So, musk companies are adding massively to american economy, while others continue to outsource, while killing off R&D.

Spot on. We should NOT have variable taxes. Just a simple %. And as to subsidies, all of them should be limited time and designed to only start an industry.

These are subsidies that gov offers. He has not stolen anything.
In addition, Kock broths get more than that EACH YEAR. Do you think that the neo-cons are going after them? And no, the tea-party will not be going after Musk OR kock brothers. As such, the GOP will be split on this.

So many ppl are polarized about him. They either hate him because he is successful, or they love him because he is innovative. Look at how fast these postings have jumped.

LOL.
DO you really think that 7K makes a difference to the average buyer of a Model S? Nope.
However, where the model S has sold, it HAS cut the sales of Lexus, Caddies, Porsche Panamera, etc. IOW, cars that are of the same class are way down in sales. And with the Model X coming in 2 months, it should kill off sales like Escalade, along with the Cayennes, etc.

Within 2 year, the Model 3, at a price of $35K, will be at the average price of a car sold in America. That will make a HUGE difference not only to buyers, but to other car makers.

If we quit burning oil/nat gas, America will not need to import any oil. We have plenty for all of the other uses.

LOL. Uh, no. We need to STOP subsidies on oil AND Solar TODAY, along with changing the subsidies on Wind, other AE, EVs, Energy Storage, and nat gas use in Commercial Vehicles.
By stopping subsidies for oil and in fact, raising the gas/diesel taxes so that they support the roads properly, it will encourage Americans to move off ICE.
Likewise, we should stop the EV/hybrid subsidies, and instead, simply offer up a limited time subsidy based on range. Hybrids keep us tied to oil. And EVs like the leaf will actually cost us MORE down the road due to their small amount of storage. Instead, we should offer up $3.5K for any vehicle below 100 MPC based on EPA rating. Then offer up $7k for vehicles between 100-149 MPC. Finally, for anything that gets 150 MPC on-up, they should get $14K.
In addition, we should provide limited time subsidies for COMMERCIAL vehicles, or any LARGE passenger vehicle, for using Nat Gas, and within 3 years, only for series hybrids using Nat Gas. This will allow for these vehicles to stop using diesel (which we import via oil imports), and the series hybrid will get them moving towards electric which will allow us to stop using nat gas down the road.
Wind should be stopped in 2-4 years.
And then Energy Storage should be given a LIMITED TIME subsidy that starts high and drops every year. In addition, it should be different based on usage (residential vs commercial vs utility, with Utility and Commercial being the more valuable).

Not only should it be a % like it is for regular ppl, but, we should jump that % up for environmentally sensitive land, and drop it for land that is not.
In addition, we should require that drillers and piping companies be held responsible for their actions. Yet, we do not.

Really? In what way is a company that actually makes things, an added layer?

You must be one of the paid russian trolls.
1) 90s was about the internet being opened.
2) the only real manufacturing that we lost during the 90s was steel.
3) it was during 00's that America lost the majority of our manufacturing, due to tax codes that W/neo-cons passed (and is STILL on the books).
4) manufacturing is REQUIRED by nations to keep designs going.

What is needed is to remove subsidies for OLD technology and then have limited time subsidies for any new tech that we want to develop. For example, we SHOULD use subsidies to get Thorium/Molten Salt reactors going. Likewise, we SHOULD use subsidies to get Energy Storage going. The difference is that these should ONLY be used on products from nations that do not block ours or dumps theirs on our markets.

Actually, Apple, Microsoft, and Google have taken billions in money from the feds.
In addition:
1) Solar City is only everybody's buildings. Also, we should stop the Solar subsidies since many companies no longer need them. Far better is to simply require that all new buildings below 6 stories to have enough on-site AE to equal their HVAC's energy usage.
2) SpaceX is the cheapest launch system going. Bar none. And they are about to be even cheaper. So far, SpaceX has actually SAVED the feds more money than it has costs them.
3) Tesla's Model S and X is currently for the upper middle class to wealthy. Probably it is the upper 1/3 that affords these. OTOH, in about 2 years, it will be the upper 2/3 that affords them.

Finally, claiming that it is the POOR that pay for these subsidies is a joke. Right now, in America, the bottom 50% pay NOTHING in the federal taxes. So, like the rest of your post, total BS.
And it would be irresponsible for Musk to NOT take the subsidies. Where the real problem is, that gov, feds and states, are giving these out. Hell, the fossil fuel industry gets 8B / year. That should be stopped NOW.

How funny.
Tesla employed over 6000 full-time last sept. That does not include ppl working on gigafactory.My guess is that with model X gearing up that it will jump to 10,000 by Jan.
Solar city employs full time over 8000 as of Dec, 2014. And they doubled last year They are still hiring like mad. Again, that does not include those working on the new 1gw/year solar plantS. On a side note , it turns out that solar employs more ppl than coal.
spacex employed more than 3000 last summer when they cleaned house of 150. In addition, they said that they would be at 3600 by 2015.

So, musk employs conservatily, 25,000 ppl and it is growing very fast. OTOH, the fossil fuel industry is subsidized more than 8b PER year in America. In fact, we pay 1 B / year to cover coal miners health. I would suggest that we look to kill a number of subsidies, esp in the fossil fuel arena.

Sadly, that was a great assessment of the past, current, and probably future.

No. I would visit my sister in phoenix , who has a decent job, but they did not bother with AC. Why not? Because they are acclimated to high temps. OTOH, she thinks that 50-60f is cold.

Normally, that is called Texas.
