To the editor: Elon Musk, as soon as once more, turns his again on his most loyal prospects, the purchasers that put Tesla on the map, by transferring his corporations together with SpaceX to Texas. His vanity will probably be his undoing.
I at present personal two Teslas and they are going to be my final. I hope my fellow Californians will be part of me on this boycott.

To the editor: I’ve labored within the aerospace business, and generally an organization’s plans to maneuver out of California have backfired on them for quite a lot of causes. Amongst them:
- Your high expertise can probably discover a one other job near residence.
- Many spouses now have their very own careers and won’t simply pack up and go.
- Not all employees will need to transfer and lose entry to their community of household and pals.
- When you promote your house in California and transfer to a lower-cost state, you could not have the ability to afford transferring again if the job or new locale doesn’t work out, and you could be caught paying a hefty capital positive aspects tax in the event you promote your home in California.
- The the identical high quality of schooling in your kids is probably not accessible in your new location.

To the editor: We Californians have been beside ourselves with grief once we heard that Musk is taking his toys and transferring to Texas. Is anybody shocked? I’m shocked he waited so lengthy, however he discovered a great excuse responsible his departure on California’s woke tradition.
I’m on my fourth Tesla, and will probably be my final.
At one level Musk was an excellent entrepreneur; that part of his obvious sociopathy is lengthy gone. What a disgrace. Now that former President Trump is an entirely owned subsidiary of Musk, and his working mate Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) is an entirely owned subsidiary of Peter Thiel, we will all relaxation comfortably figuring out the nation will probably be in good palms.
The Supreme Courtroom made some horrible choices on this previous time period, however none so devastating to the nation and our democracy as the choice a decade in the past to permit limitless cash to be spent to purchase elections and personal candidates.
Maybe in the future our nice nation will regain its sense of steadiness and equanimity, and produce us all again to the day once we the individuals owned our elected officers, not individuals like Musk and Thiel.
