In a series of posts on X Monday night, Musk said that he would not want to grow Tesla to become a leader in artificial intelligence and robotics without a compensation plan that would give him ownership of around 25% of the company’s stock. That would be about double the roughly 13% stake he currently owns.

Just casually asking for a roughly 80 Billion dollar pay raise. But at this point would Tesla be better off without him?

    You are not using regulatory capture correctly in your comments.

    You’re incorrect about PWC as well.

      Your understanding of the term is incorrect. I am definitely using it correctly. And you are definitely wrong about PWC, plus any other accounting firm on Earth.

      But I think it is clear that your mind is made up. If you won’t believe me, then I won’t press any further.

        Also, most of the numbers can’t be trusted. It’s known as “regulatory capture.”

        This is not regulatory capture, and you are certainly using it incorrectly.

          Regulatory capture is anytime that special interests have overridden the enforcement agencies’ desire to protect the public. That can also apply to accounting firms. So yes, it is correct.

              There’s no reason for them to conduct audits honestly. Again, if you are totally convinced that what I described is impossible, just let me know. We can end this conversation now.
