If like a contract. If Tesla doesn't cover the number of people hired required. It should lose all incentives.

Texas embraced Tesla upon leaving California. Now this. BYD has now surpassed Tesla. It's time for Tesla or any company to build a cheaper and better vehicle than BYD.

Yes as a Northern California Resident We had allies of Elon Musk brag about how good they had in Texas except not everybody here can go there and the only people that can afford to leave California are some of the Venture Capitalists and Tech bros that are politically aligned with Elon Musk.

Because they don’t want to use the billions they already have, so naturally you, me, and 340 million others have to give them our tax dollars to make sure Musk’s feelings don’t get hurt by losing his a few Bs due to his bad decisions. Ain’t it interesting how much mega-Capitalists avoid actually competing for cash under the Capitalist system if they don’t have to?

@@phgamer4393Part of the reason it’s so common not just in SV but all over, is because a lot of the workers are on work visas. Lots less job protection and ability to seek recompense when you’re not a citizen and have to choose between working most hours of the week and being sent back home.

I’ve owned my own business now for 18 years and have opened three locations. Subsidized businesses are not a good idea. It just cost the all tax payers for a business not in the own state or employee any of the states citizens. The government gives you the ability to get all you have invested back from a company tax free and have tax advantages to own a business. The federal government should not be in the business of choosing winners and loosing. Obama invested billions in solar factories in Organ and Wisconsin then put a 35% tariffs on all imported solar panels. The CCP which owns all the state businesses lower the price of Chinese solar panels $100 less than cost of US manufactured. Where is my tax rebate from that subsidized business?

Tesla needs to have about 2,300 employees to qualify for tax incentives in Austin area Tesla has about 23,000 direct employees in the Austin area (with far more indirect jobs) Can no-one do basic math? Tesla can lay off 90% of their employees and still be in compliance. But no, gotta blow it up, make it evil. Further, this is not the first time Tesla has had widespread layoffs. Curiously, some had hiring pushes within six months. And Tesla has approximately 140,000 employees worldwide. One business company estimated that Tesla added over $950 million to the economy in 2022.

take away the incentives because they are firing around 10% of the workers? if I were Tesla, with the incentives gone, I might as well just close up shop and move production somewhere else.... then 100% of the local workers can all collect unemployment. Not a hard decision.
