Perhaps it's that emphasis on free-market competition that got a Koch-backed group to stand alongside the likes of the Sierra Club.

Ya think? The left is baffled by people who value liberty for it's own sake.

Not surprising. Alone among moneyed interests, the Koch brothers uniformly take a pro-market stance, rather than a pro-business stance, which is why the left hates them so much. The post-Clinton left has been happy to coopt the rich by making regulations favoring incumbents in the market (like car dealers in this instance), provided they support the ‘Rats with campaign donations.

The Earth is a giant electromagnetic vortex. With the correct technology it should be possible to run an electric vehicle without using gas or coal generated power plants. The way to break the back of the oil oligarchy is to make this technology a front runner ...

The government interference in how Tesla chooses to market and sell their product is despicable.

I support direct sales of cars and other products from manufacturers to consumers as under the UCC implied warranties come back into play for consumers.

FedGov should not reward one business model over another in car sales. I wonder if Cruz could appeal to at least some of the Warren voters by emphasizing his free market disdain for crony capitalism. Mainstream democrats and establishment republicans are both in the pockets of corrupt big business interests.

Guy down the street from me (he is in his mid 80’s and a retired Boeing engineer) has a Tesla AWD on order.

“The rear motor of the P85D churns out the equivalent of 465bhp, the front motor 218bhp, making for 683bhp in total – an awful lot of power in anyone’s money.”

Now remember the two fundamental immutable laws of the universe:
1. There is no such thing a a skirt that is too short.
2. There is no such thing as too much horsepower.

Will he have to sell his Tesla?
