   Tesla cut pay during a recession to not undergo layoffs.

   The overvaluation of the share price is irrelevant to this and shouldn't be thought of as a sustained wealth gain for Elon.

   Also, the overvaluation of the shares is largely to do with the cult status of the CEO, so the increase in value of employee stock options to slightly compensate for the pay cut is the result of elons brand.

   Hell, the fact that Tesla can afford to employee so many people is because of elons brand to be able to do things like get special tax incentives from NY state to build a roof shingle factory in buffalo etc

   Lol, Elon is an intellectual midget. What matters is whether the 10% cut is larger than the increase in share price. Second, the cut has zero risk while there is significant uncertainty around stock returns which should be taken into account

   Why does it matter? It's his company. He can do whatever he pleases

   Thank god I live in Germany where the law actually cares about citizens and where we can actually build proper cars

   Robert Reich is the modern-day soy boy midget.

   These are possibly the only true words coming from Elon fanboys' mouth

   Lol, Robert Reich.
   That midget should be happy to live in a capitalistic society, otherwise he wouldn't earn that much with his anti-capialistic nonsense.
   All the (cultural) Marxists and socialists make in fact a good living in capitalist societies by selling utopian dreams and snake oil.

   Wow, Sweden is a role model when they deal with covid but it becomes a commie country when we talk about taxes

   Yeah yeah, sweden. Full of welfare parasites. Immigrants make 20% of the population there, but take 75% of the social welfare benefits.

   Correct. And anyway - taxes are theft.

   Indeed.

    Two of those are German and one of the others is known for being vehemently unreliable.

    Musk is a con/man. His biz model is totally flawed and TSLA stock is the biggest bubble in stock market history.

    None of that matters. What matters is that EM created an empire from nothing and can do wtf he wants. If the employees are not happy with their compensation they should leave. RR is upper middle class at least and probably never actually created anything of value.
