Oh yeah, Elon Musk, I was talking about earlier, talking about moving Tesla out
of California
following extended shelter-in-place rules. Local California officials refuse to
let Tesla reopen
its Fremont factory. Tesla has filed a lawsuit against Alameda County. Elon
Musk threatened to
move Tesla's headquarters to Texas or Nevada, where shelter-in-place rules are
less restrictive.
Elon Musk tweeted, the unelected and ignorant interim health officer of Alameda
is acting
contrary to the governor, the president, and our constitutional freedoms and
just plain
common sense. He said, frankly, this is the final straw. Tesla is the last carmaker
left
in California. I think you're going to run into stuff like this because
you know, business owners, business operators, they want to, they want a
business. Business people
want a business. And they, we live in a free market where people can business.
And so when
a government comes in at a certain point and says, oh, you can't business, you
know, I think
you're going to get, this is what you're going to get. You're going to get
people who say, that's
fine. I'm going to go to a state that is a little bit more along the lines with
the way
that I want to do business. And I say more power to that. You know, I'm all for
a little
bit more for state governments. You know, I'd love to see more, you know, this
is this state
and this is the way that they like to do things because we're such a, we're
such a people that,
you know, people have so many ideas now and everybody has a platform now to
share their
ideas and how they think and what they like. Um, that I feel like there, that
there should
be almost more options, more options. I wish that everybody were just, we are
America,
but that doesn't seem to be the way that it is anymore. And so I think if you
have a bunch
of different kind of smaller types of America within states, then people can
say, okay, this
state is more to my liking. This is where I want to do my business. This is
more what I'm
in line with. And I think you're going to get that, you know, especially
California. I mean,
California, you know, it's very liberal and, you know, they try to kind of
cater to, you
know, or always help the lowest common denominator or give everybody, um, you
know, they want
to help everyone. And I love it. I love it in theory. Uh, but sometimes in
practicality,
it's not always, you know, um, I don't feel like there's a lot of, you also
need to help
yourself. Whereas some states, I feel like there's a bit more in the
constituents or constant or in
their, in their, in the ball bag of each of that state that says, or in the ovaries
that says,
Hey, you know, we'll help you. You also have to help yourself. You also need to
do things for
yourself. Um, so yeah, I think it's neat that there's, if that, if, uh, and if
businesses want
to go with it and then they have the ability to do that. Um, but I'm not
surprised, you know,
I'm not surprised. It's interesting too, cause in, in California, a lot of
businesses are so,
you know, people are very, there's a strong sense of, um, okay, everyone needs
to wear a mask
or a stronger sense here than there are in other places that I've been. And I'm
living mostly in
the Hollywood area. So, but I see, I hear a strong sense of, okay, we need to
wear masks. Do you have
your mask on? Why don't you have your mask on? Um, but now some businesses aren't
going to be able
to come back because they're not going to be able to make enough money like a
restaurant in a,
in a neighborhood where it costs them, you know, $20,000 a month for their rent.
Now,
if they have to keep tables six feet apart or whatever, they're not going to be
able to
survive because they're not going to be able to have enough tables in their
restaurant.
So it's just like, you have places that it's almost like their own
extremely, or their own more liberal rules are now eating up their own
businesses.
If that makes any sense. And sometimes I don't know what I'm talking about. And
I always don't
know what I'm talking about. Um, but, but it's like, okay, well, these are,
this is the way it needs
to be. We need to follow all these guidelines. And now the guidelines have it.
So they can't even run
their own businesses anymore. Um, whereas you have other places, you know, I
was in Utah last week
and they're just like, Hey, let's rock, you know, let's rock. So that's America
though. People can,
you can do it different ways, but businesses are also going to be able to
decide, okay,
I want to do my business in the place where they're a little bit more, less
rock or a little,
or they're a little bit more. No, we can't rock. Cause these are the rules.
And both of those are okay.
