You must really hate General Motors and Chrysler. BTW Tesla is putting all their revenue back into the company, remember they started a new car company from scratch and are currently building a very large battery factory. In 2013 they repaid a $465 million government loan.
Consider how many new auto companies we've had in the last 100 years and given Tesla is trying to rid the market of petrol burners I'd say any government money that goes into the company is well spent. BTW other auto makers also get incentives not just Tesla.
