He’s a car salesman. He wants you to commute in a Tesla and opposes remote work.



One-off projects like the High Speed Rail won’t make a noticeable dent in global sales.

And he opposed remote work at his own companies because he believes (rightly or wrongly) it leads to decreased productivity.

You’re comparing now with several years ago when California was by far Tesla’s biggest market.

> And he opposed remote work at his own companies because he believes (rightly or wrongly) it leads to decreased productivity.

It’s called a hidden agenda.

The man is a sociopath and chronic liar, one would be a fool to take anything he says at face value. Instead we must judge Musk by his actions and past behavior, not his words.
