Most here probably have skin in the game. And most of those who do, do not have the power to exit their Tesla positions. Do you know how dominate passive index funds are in the market? And how constrained most retirement custodian plans are? We're all Tesla shareholders whether we like it or not. But your silly gatekeeping is nonsense. People are entitled to their opinions on a public forum, regardless of their positions. Maybe those without positions have the most valid voices.

Pure fantasy to anyone who's living in a 50's or 60's house with 100 amp service and a gas-fired boiler, stove, heater, dryer, and barely enough juice to run a window unit AC or two. Fantasy to upgrade this building? Um, we're scaling these projects exponentially. They take a week to drop the heating and cooling load by ~30% and electrify all end uses. Extensive workforce training programs are exploding across the country and for the first time in over 15 years we're actually growing the trades necessary to do the work. Most people in the US can electrify on 100A service, including those well into climate zone 6. Ignorance is the chief barrier progress.

That's what I do. Giving the tax man extra never made a difference in my life whether I made 18k or 300k. I've tepidly lent support to various questionable city referendums for schools and parks, both the police and school district are run terribly, but ultimately hundreds to a few thousands per year is insignificant for me, as it is most people who understand how money and planning work.
