So with everything Elon Musk has done to advance space exploration and star link why hasn’t the White House acknowledged him in any way? You would think he would be eligible for Presidential Medal of Freedom or something similar. Seems to me he has done more in advancing technology and space exploration than a lot of people/governments.

When did he post this? Our govt is messed up,that even if they are not on the same political spectrum they can’t recognize a person for doing amazing things. This guy could put a for sale sign and or close up shop on everything he runs and sale off into the sunset but yet CHOOSES to continue to help society..yes he makes money but it’s deserved.

Would you buy one of his Tesla cars? Since he’s so unbelievably smart and patriotic, he must make a helluva a car.

He apparently does, as it is the number one selling EV in the world.

I would not buy one, as I do not believe in man made climate change, or that CO2 is the cause of any of this nonsense. But iffn I was an electric fella, that Tesla Pickup I have seen bopping around town would be my go to. Its so ugly its kind of cute.

If the electric vehicle becomes the norm, won’t that adversely affect ND’s oil industry?

No, that electricity will be made by oil, just like it is now. Coal and Oil are the primary producers of electricity.

Its really just a shell game to make liberals and Californians feel fuzzy.

Isn't the eco diesel out in dickinson being sold for somewhere around $15 a gallon to California? I feel fuzzy thinking about all that money coming into ND and out of CA LOL!
