USG war on Tesla: does it benefit consumers or producers?

There is a growing devise between market producers and political producers. While market producers create profits by leveraging efficient consumer focus products that improve lives, political producers make money through rent seeking, and aggressively lobbying the government to give them the favor of law. Frankly, it's f**k bullshit.

Because I don't believe in genuine pro bono activities, I've been spending a lot of time advocating for uber in Miami. The anticompetitive scum sucking taxicab lobby here is trying to get the city to lock out uber. Getting a taxi in Miami is f**k impossible. These political producers must be broken, weather they are protecting taxi cabs or car dealers. Unfortunatey, boomers and unions are determined to get as much of the pie as possible, and f**k everyone else.

Write letters, solicit donations and make angry calls to ANY government official that support such practices. Most of these decisions are decided at a very local level, and local politicians can actually be bullied by a single determined constituent.

well that and the range issue. if it took 30 seconds to recharge no one would care but it doesn't. again, i don't think they'll ever be bigger sellers to people as their own cars.

i think they will do wonders as driverless cabbies of the future (where people won't own as many cars, period)
