Given the enormous odds they have faced - and continue to face - it wouldn't surprise me if this kind of mindset is common at Tesla: "Us vs. the world" with a healthy, super-sized amount of belief in what they're doing.

My comment above applies here as well. Add on to that some evidence to suggest the Musk isn't just out to make a buck (that's what his previous ventures were about), but to actually change the world. I'll say this - I'm happy there's someone like Elon Musk out there, because without him I'm not sure the electric car movement is even 1/100 of the way to where it is currently.
