Comment Re:"Seeking to open up its car market." (Score 0) 94

Ahead in what way? Tesla is already outselling China's biggest EV maker BYD, but it will take a second gigafactory to beat them in just Chinese sales which will be a few years away from building.

Building a factory in China does open up Tesla to the car market in China. China does not allow outside companies to import their goods for the most part.

China's biggest EV maker sales have been declining the last few months, maybe because people decided to wait and get a Tesla instead of the others.

Next up for Tesla is a Europe gigafactory.

Comment False crises (Score -1) 159

Just like Climate change, this is a false crises. If someone has been without a job for 5 years, it is because they don't want to work. If automation is replacing jobs, more jobs are being created right now to replace them in the great Trump economy.

There is nothing to fear about automation, it is just the next big change like the industrial age, some jobs will be automated and new job sectors will replace them.

Comment In the big picture.... (Score -1) 24

It does not matter, it makes no difference. Absolutely none, only thing this does is make people feel better.

Renewable energy is limited, all the energy it produces get used, then all the required energy comes from oil, gas, coal... etc. So they using only "clean" energy means the people who used that energy before, will now be using oil, gas, coal. Not that it matters, all that energy is in the same power grid.

How long until the 33 billion start making google money? that should be the main focus. The whole carbon thing only matters to people who believe in climate change.

Yep, they always look at past data, and change it because they think it was bad data. The problem with models is you put bad data in and you get bad data out. I don't trust any of these studies until other scientists look at how they did their study. These people are paid to get the desired results, if they don't get the results they get paid for, they are fired.

I will continue to not believe it since all predictions have been wrong, and all the studies have had false or edited data. I find it more likely that climate change is just a way for politicians to get rich.

Electric cars is the reason why I see investments in non-renewable energy a good investment. Power consumption is going to really go up as more and more electric cars are being driven.

The site the study comes from pushes clean energy and pushes the climate change hoax. It is likely a paid study to get the result they want as must studies are.

If people are investing money into natural gas and gas lines, then I would trust they know more then this place does.

The real goal isn't reducing greenhouse emissions, the real goal is line the pockets of the politicians. Pour money into solar/wind, and they pour that money back to the politicians. The Democrats don't make money from nuclear power, so they will always be against it.

The most important point of keeping it open is lower energy costs. We are going to need more nuclear power plants as more people buy electric cars, otherwise we will be burning coal/oil to make electricity to power the cars. Does not matter as for as the climate change hoax, but nuclear power would be cheaper.

Comment Just as well (Score -1) 80

having a "like" button is pointless if there is no "dislike" button. Any site that does not have a "dislike" option, I just ignore the "like".

I don't even bother reading any news on facebook, most of it just pro-Democrat propaganda that facebook wants to promote.
