Actually, the stronger possibility is it's the kind of story you'd expect the Mail on Sunday (or it's sister the Daily Mail) to tell about the EU, regardless of whether there is any truth in it. Or if there is a grain of truth, with lots of untrue embellishments.
Or in this case, as it's the Telegraph, the kid down they road they'd like to be...
That is true, I'll grant you - but if the Government could be persuaded to fund it - why not the banks? (I'm guessing that the banks would have wanted too much in return)
Which means they couldn't do it off their own bat, without risking public money?
I'll grant you the fact that he's made a go of it - but if it had failed... Joe Taxpayer foots the bill while Tesla disappears into the accountancy-based ether...
This is the same guy that just said "I have this great idea for a new means of transport"... "oh, I'm not going to pay to develop it myself - someone else can do that"?
If you want to go back to the bad old days of waiting weeks for a phone then feel free to do so, but elsewhere, not in the UK
Curious... I waited almost 3 months (in 2007 - late-May to mid-August) for a phone line to be "installed" (meaning: "someone pressing a button on a PC somewhere") - the wiring was in place, yet I had to wait... so no phone line, broadband, etc...
So if they were so good - why not just hire them? Save the costs involved in selling the public what they already owned!
I'd be happy to pay them the "necessary" salaries they claim now... because the billions in profit would mean lower taxes for all... meaning more disposable income for all... meaning more money spent in the nations shops... meaning a booming economy that lasts - not just for the few months it would take to spend the instant windfall...

Isn't part of the Patent Application being that you outline exactly why your invention is novel enough from previous systems?
To the patent office only, presumably - Joe Public can go hang as far as they're concerned...
Dissing the 52nd State.... isn't that classed as Treason yet?

Its always great to put people down but what have you done lately mr tyson.
More than you, I'll wager...
"You know whats a common problem in the U.S.? ..."
As is your "Government is bad... m'kay" rhetoric
This is the same guy that just said "I have this great idea for a new means of transport" ... "oh, I'm not going to pay to develop it myself - someone else can do that"?
So explain away the Australian guy who got shot and killed because some kids were "bored"... was he a threat to them?
Oh... of course... they stopped being "law abiding citizens" the moment the trigger was pulled...
Stop hiding behind AC and maybe, just maybe, we'll listen to you.
Though most people are still too busy cooing over the royal baby to notice...
Declaring it "not malice" IS a judgement call
But you don't get a real degree without adhering to the "current wisdom". The problem here is one of inertia.
To get a degree you are taught the "current wisdom" - yes
Your job after that point is to extend / amend it
Look how much Android pulled from iOS.
Odd ... seems to be the other way around these days (iOS6 - notification bar; iOS7 - swiping apps off the task manager screen to kill them...)
"save poor authors from starvation"
Lawyers, surely?
Any chance of a swap? We'll have Obama if you take Cameron, Clegg & Co.
From what I've heard the US economy is doing a lot better than the UK one, so if you want rid - send him our way...
Additional... then they charged me £125 for the privilege...

And ditto you with the AC...
Who pays for the State? The public.
With the right management - yes.
As I've written elsewhere - hire these miracle workers... pay them what they want... then use the profits they generate to benefit the whole economy
So if they were so good - why not just hire them? Save the costs involved in selling the public what they already owned!

Hear! Hear!
So not a state funeral - but not far off...
And I don't think you get the distinction
I get the distinction - Obviously a new definition of "not" of which I was previously unaware...
Same here as it happens...
I was at University at the time and a number of my friends took a punt using that term's grant money (I chose not to do likewise)
