Monkey See. Monkey Do.
While bankrupt GM, Chrysler and Fisker managers practically doubled their salaries via bonuses and benefits using taxpayer bailout funds from 2011, bankrupt Tesla Motors needed only 90 days to burn through $35 million of their Obama-awarded $465 million taxpayer-funded bailout.
Obama to Tesla CEO, “Now buy yourself a mansion, after you donate $100,000 to my re-election campaign, just like bankrupt Solyndra.”
It must have been the internal CEO fighting and hemorrhaging bank account – from trying to sell a $92,000 electric car that costs $140,000 to ‘produce’ – that made Tesla Motors the perfect addition to Obama’s money laundering portfolio…
Bankrupt Tesla CEO Buys $17 Million Mansion After Receiving $465 Million Taxpayer-Funded Bailout
(Breitbart) Taxpayers footed the bill for a $465 million loan to troubled electric carmaker Tesla as part of President Barack Obama’s “green energy” stimulus. But Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk is now riding high with the purchase of his new $17 million mansion.
Mr. Musk’s 20,248-square-foot hilltop mansion boasts breathtaking views, a two-story library with rolling ladder, a home theater, and a five-car garage to house his taxpayer-subsidized, pricey Tesla vehicles.
In September, the New York Times reported that Tesla had burned through cash and missed production targets, raising “questions about the long-term viability of the company” and igniting “ criticism of the government’s energy loan program, which has been heavily promoted by the Obama administration.” But Tesla says it has begun making payments on its government loan ahead of schedule.
Mr. Musk donated over $100,000 to Mr. Obama’s 2012 campaign.
Tesla produced 359 cars last quarter.

To bad nobody wants to acknowledge that the DOE loan was from a program that GW Bush enacted…not Obama, or the fact that Musk has plenty of money to buy a house…he is a billionaire after all. Everyone assumes that just because he got a loan from the gov for Tesla that he used some of that money and went and bought a home . Tesla is paying back that loan, why doesn’t everyone focus on the companies that actually have failed from Obama’s green energy plan, and wasted precious taxpayer money…as far as the Tesla is concerned, they have NOT failed yet so give them some credit.
i just realized this website was satirical lol but parts my comment still applies =D
the alternative would be a private equity deal like mitt was so good at--borrow so much money that it bankrupts the company and make a huge commission for the destruction.
