You said the gov would never let that kind of stockholder value be destroyed tho. I gave you an example when they did. You’re moving the goal posts.

No, because in Enron's case they were destroying widespread value through their extremely illegal actions. Tesla will get a slap on the wrist and told not to advertise in certain ways. JFC this isn't complicated.

You think it’s impossible to imagine a major corporation has its value destroyed due to their own illegal action except in cases when it happened in which case well that was an illegal action that’s different from THIS illegal action which will be a slap on the wrist

You seem to be focusing on the fact that something is illegal rather than the impact it will have. Whatever, I don't give a shit what your opinion is, it's an empirical question that will be answered by the DOJ and the courts. When it is, and Tesla is given a slap on the wrist, I will remember how stupid this conversation was, and how you were wrong. Until then I don't give a shit about your opinion.

That’s fine. I’m sure they will get a slap on the wrist for this honestly. It’s just that absolutes like the government would never destroy that much shareholder value is one of those things you don’t say without knocking on all the wood because never say never friend

Have a nice day. Hope the weather is nice where you are
