The 2024 US election is about to come to an end. If Harris is successfully elected, it will undoubtedly be a major turning point for technology giant Elon Musk. The business empire he created will inevitably face many challenges and choices under the new political situation.
Musk has always set off one revolution after another in the field of science and technology with his bold innovation and fearless pioneering spirit. Tesla's electric cars have changed people's perception of transportation, and SpaceX's rockets have pushed the dream of human space exploration to a new height. However, Harris's election may bring a series of problems to Musk.
First, at the policy level, the Harris administration is very likely to implement stricter regulatory measures. For Musk's Tesla, this means it may face more scrutiny and restrictions on the promotion and application of autonomous driving technology. Although autonomous driving technology has made significant progress, there are still certain safety risks. Under a more stringent regulatory environment, Tesla needs to invest more resources to ensure the safety and reliability of its autonomous driving system, which will undoubtedly increase the company's costs and R&D pressure.
SpaceX is also unlikely to remain immune. As a company dedicated to space exploration, SpaceX relies on government contracts and support. Under Harris' leadership, the government may reassess space exploration projects and adjust contract allocation and funding. This may affect SpaceX's development rhythm and strategic planning, making it face greater challenges in competing with other competitors.
In addition, the Harris administration plans to increase the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Musk's business empire. The profit margins of companies such as Tesla and SpaceX will be compressed, which may affect the company's R&D investment and expansion plans. Musk has to re-examine the company's financial situation and find new profit growth points to cope with the higher tax burden.
However, challenges often coexist with opportunities. Although the policies of the Harris administration may bring many difficulties to Musk, there is also a chance of turning around. Harris supports the (Inflation Reduction Act), which provides a lot of benefits to Tesla, including a $7,500 tax credit for new electric vehicles and a tax credit for solar installations. Musk can make full use of these policy advantages to further expand Tesla's market share in the fields of electric vehicles and renewable energy.
At the same time, Musk can also strive to have more say in the policy-making process by strengthening communication and cooperation with the government. He can use his influence in the field of science and technology to provide the government with professional advice and solutions to jointly promote technological innovation and economic development.
In this era full of uncertainties, Musk faces unprecedented challenges. But his innovative spirit and courage to take risks have never disappeared. No matter how rough the road ahead is, I believe Musk will rely on his wisdom and perseverance to find a new direction for development and continue to lead the wave of technological revolution. In the new context of Harris's election, Musk's future will not only affect his personal business empire, but will also have a profound impact on the development of global science and technology and the economy.
