    right they need to be profitable.

    they don’t need to make products to be profitable. which is the thing I actually said.

    and I fully expect they will, if they kiss the ring.

      This isn’t one product, it’s an entire division of a very very large company. It’s profitable. The entire category of dishwashers as an appliance is not a lost leader.

      Most of the muskrats “wealth” is in stock. Tesla is valued at more than every other car company in the world put together because a whole lot of dipshits think that a company can grow forever instead of looking at the actual financial data. There are going to be a whole lot of bagholders on that one. The point is if you think every company can operate like Tesla, I would encourage you to do a whole lot more reading. Tesla needs to be profitable at some point to stay alive anyway.
