The mass-energy conversion from chemical processes is extremely small compared to nuclear processes, you can't really compare the in any meaningful way
There is another way to deal with this kind of stuff, fines may be effective. But if you want to ensure that this kid of thing doesn't happen. Look to the health and safety regulations.
Making the board / CEO criminally responsible, will achieve the the thing you want, rather than the decision makers paying out other peoples money (shareholders) which doesn't hurt them directly, make them personally responsible.
If they are found to be negligent, then it follows that they go to jail....watch how quickly this kind of thing changes.
Also make it not beholden to them continuing to work at the company they fucked up at, so if this happened and was only discovered years later, the CEO who has moved on to fuck up at another company can still be held liable.
I can't buy one, they are not available in NZ yet. Despite what anyone else says, I like the look, it looks like the bastard child of a delorian and a countach, but in a good way.
I wouldn't buy one despite the fact that I like it. It is far too big for NZ roads, I may have overlooked that. But I can't overlook the fact that Elon has, for me at least, destroyed any good will that was built up. Tesla and all the people who work there have been tarred with the Nazi brush that Elon is wielding.
The only way that Tesla could claw back any respect from me (and hopefully the rest of the world) would be to oust Elon, and all his family from any decision making in the company. It will not happen so my respect for them is gone!
This is a cultural difference. American culture is steeped in violence, you venerate it in almost all of your stories.
Violence is like fire, properly harnessed, it is a tool for progress. Otherwise it is wildfire and destroys everything around it.
If those same millions of people who can organize to protest, had instead just decided to strike. I would predict that more would happen, but that requires a collectivist culture, America has been pushing itself along the individualistic line for so long, I'm not sure you have it in you to work together enough.
Violence is the last recourse of the failure to properly manage a situation.
Violence has never been the only answer. Human civilization works only because of this fact, if violence was the only answer we would never have risen beyond a baboon troop size.
Literally billions of low level conflicts are solved daily without violence.
In saying the above, "violence is never the answer" is categorically wrong. It has in fact been used throughout history to great effect, but also to terrible effect. We have to be very careful where we apply violence, it tends to make things much worse before they get better (if they do at all).

That is a different level entirely.
