Except their supercharger roadmap shows a lot more than the 100 stations you criticize (admittedly some of those are in Canada), your post ignores the enormous solar panels on top of supercharger stations (they're using grid storage, IIRC) to defray electrical costs (Musk claims they'll produce more than they consume, although that likely depends on how many cars/batteries they charge each day), and you don't actual demonstrate how they'll require subsidies to do this.
They've stated the battery swapping stations are half a million each at the moment, and that fully equipping their planned supercharger network would cost $50-100 million. Tesla's got a rapidly rising revenue currently over half a billion dollars per year. They don't need subsidies to make a $50-100 million investment at this point.
