How do you explain the $7,500 subsidy for each Tesla sold?

Also, the government would have gifted them the money regardless of their ability to pay it back. Fisker couldn't pay back theirs, as did many other energy companies that went bankrupt. No one was arrested and no personal assets were taken.

The same way I explain the $7,500 subsidy for each ANY all electric car sold; as the government trying to promote alternatives to ICE because (in theory) it's good for the planet and economy.
