It’s a great time to be rich :money_mouth_face:

Who knew? You stop offering what parents want, you run out of students… Maybe they should start offering what parents ACTUALLY want instead of shoving agendas down our throats, taking away gifted programs, dumbing down Lowell, and removing Algebra I from middle schools.

Parents wanted in school learning, and the teacher’s union got their way instead. Now some of those teachers won’t have jobs. Maybe they could fire some of the administrators in Sacramento and reduce class sizes for the students, but those guys are probably really entrenched.

Remember TSLA is not a car manufacturer, it is also not a software company, it is also not an energy distribution company, it is… wait for it… MEME :grinning: The only direction it will go is UP according to WSB.

With the kind of worldwide all government push/support towards non fossil use towards various use cases, TSLA could go up by a lot.
