    FFS always having a snipe at Ian (a successful person) but that's what the left do````````````````````````````````````````" So Bitter"

    Paypal easy answer :..........

    Paypal in its start up period was not or is not regarded as a bank by the US banking authorities thus funds are not held in reserve banking but are invested or held in commercial bearing accounts.....................its for a better word Gov't subside .

    Paypal is known as a money transmitter thus from state to state avoids banking regulations .

    I still disagree with your implication that that Musk started Tesla to “take advantage of subsidies” .

    Well I guess he’s one up on Ford and Holden who still couldn’t make a profit in Aus despite huge subsidies! I’m not arguing that subsidies don’t exist BUT is Musk just chasing subsidies? I don’t think so; the reality is that the government is subsidising the new technologies that he’s interested in - chicken and egg. Of course any business is going to use what’s available to them but I don’t think Musk has ever lobbied for subsidies.

    I assume you posted the article to argue against yourself

    “The company was able to get into production owing to a $465 million low-interest loan provided by the Obama Administration and its customers received federal tax credits for years, as well as state rebates, for buying its zero-emission vehicles that were worth billions of dollars.

    The company is also the top beneficiary of indirect government subsidies in the form of sales of pollution credits”
