So much anger, dude. They got a loan at a time when banks weren't loaning money to each other, let alone innovative start-ups. A drop in the bucket compared to the amount of money the government spends, which, in case you need reminding, will be paid back.
Does your rage extend to not buying the gasoline we subsidize the crap out of?

And yes, Nissan has the Leaf for half the price...with half the range and half the driving dynamics. Knock yerself out.

Perfect. The Model S comes in both regular and sport (0-to-60 in 4.4 seconds) with an 300 mile (85 kWh) pack.

Calling it a "hatchet job" is certainly not overly exaggerated....and the point at which they claim they would have ran out was also a load of BS. Tesla Roadster sales in the UK where that episode is repeated have lagged behind those in other European markets. If I was Tesla I certainly wouldn't give them a car to test again.
