What is your point here?

I was originally responding to someone who said Starlink should be stripped from Musk, with a mention of the government subsidies that could be at stake being leverage for the government against Musk. The portion of Tesla that he owns isn't relevant here, the implications of their removal would impact the entire company, not just 20% or whatever it is he owns. Back to my point though and the removal of these subsidies wouldn't have any great impact to companies worth over 10 times their amount.

You're off the beaten track completely.

Ukraine has a running deficit of €38bn per year and getting worse by the week. It's un-rescuable. They would have to cut everything and it will be a third world insolvent country. That's not opinion, that's a fact. They'd probably require north of €500bn in an IMF program over a number of years just to stay afloat before any adjustments.

The situation is not comparable with previous bailouts. It's really, really worse.

This is another driver to the negotiating table and, I would argue, the main one at this point because countries just aren't going to plug that gap for them.

He's also a pedo who passed himself off as a teenager named Emily. He get's his attention as being one of the first people to question Bush's WMD's rhetoric.

My point is you're lumping in all companies setup by Musk into a group owned by him.

SpaceX run Starlink. So if SpaceX lost government subsidies or was stripped from Musk, it has no bearing on the publicly owned Tesla.

Different companies with different owners. Why are you lumping them together?

All I can see in your comments is that somehow these euro deficit figures you have picked out of your ar** are supposed to be of any significance in relation to the murder of thousands of the citizens of Ukraine by an invading dictatorship. The trillions of euros and dollars earned by the western economies of the world owe much of their continued wealth to the brave Ukranians who are stopping the expansion of putins dream of a rebith of the USSR and I don't see any of the powers bankrolling the Ukraine economy to be looking for any of their investment back when they are paying for their investment daily with the blood of their people.

Lumping them together makes sense because the point was a potential financial hit on the single biggest financial contributor and CEO of them all. A hit on one side will impact his decision making on the other.

This is getting nit picky now and off topic, i'm sure Elon isn't losing any sleep over us anyway.

I believe their natural gas reserves are on par with Iraq. The oil and gas reserves are probably the largest on the continent and the 2014 annexations only occured as a result of the Ukrainian government awarding exploration rights to western companies.

Just stick to the snow forecasting ...

His wealth is mostly based on stock and stock options. We're this stock to drop significantly then his wealth evaporates. His wealth is currently based on maintaining a cult following who will purchase his products because they think he's some messiah. One wrong tweet and he could see his wealth fall off a cliff. He's heavily dependent on government investment to have gotten any of his companies to where they are today.

The incident with his tweets surrounding the shares a while back shows the authorities aren't afraid to sanction him. And national security is on another level than manipulation of share price.

There are pictures of this, not hard to find. Looks brutal.
