      someone really needs to remind AMERICA - of all fucking countries - what happens when you try to tax from afar.

        Dumping Teslas into the ocean might not be good for the ocean… Just light em on fire.

            How long do you think Tesla Shanghai is going to keep going for. Shut down that factory and all of Tesla will grind to a halt.

          To be fair they tend to catch fire when wet so tipping them into the ocean may do both.

          BYD should start making power adapters for Tesla batteries. Recycle everything!

        Funny enough, the US levies income tax against dual citizens living abroad.

          Correction the US taxes all US citizens, including permanent residents, temporarily living abroad. Look up FATCA.

            Oh sure. But the dual citizens bit is especially egregious. Like you have to pay a fee just to keep your citizenship even if you aren’t using any US service bc you live somewhere else.
