Link or it didn't happen.

I thought the only government money was loans which Tesla is paying off ahead of schedule. So hardly hand outs if you pay them back.

The reason they are paying back the $465 million dollar loan ahead of schedule is that they are making a profit.

So I'd like to see your facts to back up such remarks.
