1. I'm a Marxist, not a conservative
2. Tesla is still not profitable, so all that tax money did was go to the investors
3. A tax credit for buying a Tesla isn't the same as a subsidy for producing a good (wind/solar). A tax credit for purchase intends to make a customer choose the credited option over a different option. A subsidy would target the creation of a good to make production more economically viable because producing it would be a social good that offsets the subsidy cost.
I have more to say about how the free market is a terrible way to run an economy, but I'll leave it at that. I disagree strongly that private capitalists should be allowed to profit off of government funds, but, since the government is owned by the same capitalists, its not likely to change any time soon.
Improve the environment by destroying the middle/lower class's ability to buy home. How about just tax rich people and force out coal and oil companies? The difference in benefits is several orders of magnitude, but no, we can't harm our generous donors.
Software dev here. Going to the office is worst part of the job. Dressing in uncomfortable clothes, sitting in a freezing office, while classic rock blasts on repeat over the speakers. Always looking for a remote job so i don't have to deal with that shit any more.

Further proof that tax cuts merely inflate profit, not make it more affordable for people to buy.

Yes, lawful speak would be manslaughter. I was speaking colloquially.
We'll do better next time. We promise. Execs should be in prison for murder.
At work.
God, I LOVE CAPITALISM!
Fat men. I'm a 6 ft, 125lb male. My house is kept around 75F, while office is usually around 71F. I'm bringing in an electric blanket tomorrow.
Yeah it's in an office. What's strange about office music being played?

Big Garbage(can). Most of the data is worthless
Drugs aren't the problem, they're the solution. Life is the problem.
Oh, and IIRC, two photons are produced as the carriers of the energy, in opposite directions to conserve momentum.
100% of the mass turns into energy, so anti hydrogen + hydrogen = 2mc^2 joules, IIRC.
