Still too many Tesla is sold in the EU.

I expect a bump in cars sold in the next few months as the new Model Y Juniper starts getting produced. You'll know exactly who bought a Tesla in 2025.

EU really needs to at least get off of American tech in government service. Our tax shouldn't be going into their pockets.

Thank you for the source. Just need to use DeepL for translation. Seems like the CDU tax cut is 89 billion euros but I'm not sure if that is every year or over 10 years (which is the standard accounting rule for government budget).

Maybe get an agreement that debt can only be used for hard infrastructure like rail, electrical grid, etc. and defense spending on weapons and military staffing.

Germany needs the investment, so hopefully they can get an agreement.

I know it's needed, but I'm always worried about the French budget. Their debt to GDP is not healthy right now. On the other hand, the Germans should be spending more.
