Think about those toddlers and infants, their eyes are much more sensitive than adults'. They might need laser goggles.

In the Munich Tesla store I was told 0.17 € / minute, i.e. 0.085 € / kWh @ 120 kW. (Mod: edited at user request. --ggr).
Sorry but if China is the 52nd US State, then who is the 51st? The last US history course I took in high school only had us at 50. Did I miss something? lolThat's the thing: China is basically a 52th U.S. state, using a currency that is tightly coupled to the dollar (the Yuan), doing much of the U.S.'s high-tech manufacturing.
The "trade deficit" is basically an artifact of that arrangement, and the "tariffs" are basically a tax on U.S. high-tech companies like Tesla or Apple, and on U.S. consumers. Tariffs are also hurting consumer spending in China ... the largest market of many U.S. high-tech firms.
This is why Trump's China tariffs have triggered a 30% drop in the NASDAQ and are causing recession fears - the Trump administration is misunderstanding how the U.S. economy works.
The "trade wars are easy to win" statement by Trump turned into "our own foot is easy to shoot" reality.
Huh. Do people not know that u/cliffordcat is a notorious anti-Tesla troll who got perma-banned from r/TeslaMotors and then made his own anti-Tesla sub because of how mad he was about that? Posting in that guy's sub is like commenting on Seeking Alpha. Don't waste your time there unless you hate your mortal lifespan and wish to destroy it more quickly.
I think they're trying to suppress the stock and make it unappealing to investors. They don't care about losing a few million in order to do this.
Denmark is a tiny country with pretty low consumption that can dump it's excesses (or borrow from) Sweden, Norway and Germany.
Wind power wont be more than a supplement. It's too variable. Power generation goes to the fourth power of wind speed, so forecasts being off by just hugely impact power generation.
It's nowhere near as predictable as solar. It can generate nothing for weeks at a time then generate at 100% for weeks at a time. Adding a full day of storage to something like that doesn't increase the capacity factor as well as something like solar.
Offshore wing is not cheap either, it's triple the cost of onshore wind, and future price declines are 100% in solar's favor since wind still needs huge amounts of steel and concrete structures.
When we get all of our power from renewables it's going to come from solar in sunny places with dependable sunlight for all seasons pumped to where it is needed... For Europe that means Northern Africa.
When all the fossil plants are dead that's when the nuclear plants should be taken offline, IMHO.
Or can we really assume that the process of inclusion is completely objective?

So economically the U.S. has 52 states if we require an economic size of at least Vermont, and China is the virtual 53rd.
Ah, ok. I've been to Vermont. What it lacks in economic impact it more than makes up for in natural beauty...especially in the fall. I certainly prefer it over both D.C. and Puerto Rico, but hey that's just me. lolSmall joke: "50 states" is a political, not an economic term, so I tend not to use it in economic discussions.
Gives me the opportunity to make these points:
Both Washington DC and Puerto Rico are part of the U.S. economy, with around $100b economies each, yet neither are states politically. There are 10 U.S. states with less GDP.
Both territories/districts will eventually gain full political representation as they should. (I expect Puerto Rico to be added the moment Democrats have the presidency and the Senate as well: in 2020 or 2024 at the earliest.)

Good question. Luckily, There is decent data to evaluate that question:OT
If Apple builds iPhones in China, sells in US, and in the end American company gets the $$, how does the trade deficit thingy work?
I am sure they are many more US companies that do the same ..
What are you trying to achieve with this claim? Do you expect us to take seriously the claim that somehow China is under US "rule" (political or economical)?

...Since the tail's mostly being pinned on the Trump donkey...
I'm not claiming that, I'm pointing out the economic reality that China's trade deficit to the U.S. is an artifact of the contract manufacturing China has been doing for the U.S. for decades.
Politically and culturally China is of course a proud, independent, sovereign nation. Economically, in terms of the U.S.<->China trade deficit of around 500 billion dollars a year, it's grown to the hip of the U.S. and the U.S. has grown to the hip of China - and the operation without anesthesia the Trump administration is performing right now is predictably very damaging to both countries.
Under no way do I claim that China is under the 'rule' of the U.S. - it's a symbiotic relationship.
You are free to reject my analogy, and I admit that it's not a perfect one.
generally i just buy and hold, but a few days ago i sold 10% of my shares hoping to buy back in lower. so now i'm in this weird limbo where i feel conflicted whether the stock goes up OR down! (right now, it's basically in the exact same spot as where i sold)
Could be his car is in the first batch on sea now...

I thought topics were totally arbitrary here. LOL!Absolutely - I'm not arguing for the exclusion of any U.S. state, I'm arguing for the inclusion of Puerto Rico (and full political integration of DC), but this is getting seriously off topic.
