Is the government going to see a return on those? Or is it an investment because you think they are going to be a net improvement for society? To be honest if I had a choice I would give most tax dollars to the EFF and ACLU, but if Tesla can improve battery technology and adoption of electric cars I would consider it a win.

I think they have already improved battery technology and adoption of electric cars.

That's true. I should have wrote "continue to improve".
