You had a car/had access to a car?

I'm not at all questioning your story, I'm just surprised it was so easy. Was it harder the second time?

Maybe this isn't the place to start this debate, but what is your interpretation of the self-fulfilling prophecy that is TSLA?

In other words, people buy and hold TSLA because they believe in Elon personally, and this makes the value of the stock very resistant to bad news and has cost shorts about $2.4 billion of the total $12 billion short positions this month alone.

Yes it's true that any normal company would run out of cash and implode, but Tesla's investors have so far been willing to give Elon Musk unlimited time and money to fix problems.

Given this unique situation (and the fact that Tesla isn't committing Enron-like fraud), I'm not sure what set of circumstances could lead to an Enron-like implosion.

owned, run, and staffed by individual hospital systems or (less frequently) transportation companies.

One company operates more than half of all 911 ambulances in the entire country.

This company is American Medical Response (AMR), and they basically have a monopoly on 911 services in many parts of the country.

They recently spent $8 million in California on a ballot initiative that lets them not pay their employees for missed lunch breaks.

I used to work for AMR as an EMT, and they're the epitome of everything that's wrong with our healthcare system.
