Let's do the math.

250,000 farmers sold. 144 total suits.

144/250000 = 0.0576%

The absurdity here lies in your claim.

They don't control the entire industry. Way to give in to blatant propaganda.

"We have 16 years at current burn rates to end fossil fuels"

And what's your source for this?

Solar City and Tesla would have been possible without government subsidies? Are you sure about that?

Do you know what Elon has stated regarding government support?

"For example, Elon Musk and entrepreneurs like him have done more to move the world away from fossil fuels and towards alternative energy"

Wait, how does Elon Musk generate electricity?

You don't need to pay with insurance.

How in the world is that a "full-throated endorsement of oil subsidies"?

Also, claiming that "That's about as close as anyone has ever come to fully-backing oil subsidies" is quite laughable.

"Fascism /ˈfæʃɪzəm/ is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism[1][2] that came to prominence in mid-20th century Europe. Fascists seek to unify their nation through a totalitarian state that promotes the mass mobilization of the national community,[3][4] relying on a vanguard party to initiate a revolution to organize the nation on fascist principles. Hostile to liberal democracy, socialism, and communism, fascist movements share certain common features, including the veneration of the state, a devotion to a strong leader, and an emphasis on ultranationalism, ethnocentrism, and militarism."

Yeah, Singapore is nothing like that. The fact that 20%+ of its population are immigrants, and how it embraces immigration, disproves your pet theory. Singaporeans don't have statues of their leaders in their homes, and they're not mobilizing anyone to fight some greater evil. Singaporeans are more devoted to their iPhones than their prime minister.

Using "fascism" loosely is just ignorance.

"That is demonstrably false. Everywhere you look, throughout history, the more free a country is, the more economically prosperous it becomes. In fact, _every single example_ fits this pattern. There is not a single exception."

And your source is...? The eyeball test?

Singapore is comparable to Nazi Germany?

Get help.

"According to Forbes Tumblr is targeting $100M revenue in 2013 but, according to sources I spoke to who are familiar with the company, actual Q1 revenue growth was flat and Tumblr is on track to do only $15M in revenue this year."

This is unbelievable. I can't believe they're running out of the $85M so soon after raising it, and have basically nothing to show for it. I'd be pretty outraged if I were an investor.
