Now we have the confluence of Musk haters and BEV haters, joining together to find ways to destroy Tesla. Every negative story is suspect, IMO. The sad thing is, the story could be true but because of poor journalistic integrity, many like me suspect there is fake news in just about every...

Selling accessories that allow us to add physical buttons and stalks is a great idea. Tesla can make money on selling the parts, and we can personalize our cars exactly like we want them. I am also skeptical regarding the loss of a physical drive selector, but I am willing to see if the...

Dude. I was talking about car regulations and the freedom to choose what we buy and what we do. I was not talking about voting rights. You have taken one short comment about wanting smaller government and more freedom and distorted it to suggest I want less freedoms and more people oppressed...

Item 1. I have crashed before - no broken leg but a broken bike. I didn't wait for help. If I couldn't move, I would call my wife. The improvements in society, and there have been many, have not occurred because government has raised taxes, regulated more and mandated more. If you think...

That is absolutely false. Big corporations have power because of big government. If the laws are structured so that every business can fairly compete, big business will have competition that will keep them in check. And individuals, like you and me, will absolutely keep them in check with how...

Safety systems reduce our risk of injury and death. But they also make things less fun. Personally I like taking some risks, and doing some stupid things because it is fun. Exciting. If I want to be perfectly safe, I will wrap myself in bubble wrap and watch TV all day. I guess you want...

Government is a necessary evil. We need some. But the more we have, the less freedom we have. Free people choosing and making their own decisions provides better outcomes. Safety and pollution regulations drive up cost, hurting those who can least afford to buy food. I am not advocating...

I don't choose poison administered by autocrats where I have no choice and no alternative. Government is a monopoly. Freedom is better. Choice is better. Free people deciding on their own is better. Not perfect, but better than autocratic control. So I choose freedom and the negative...

When the government meddles, there are negative consequences. Always. It is almost impossible for the negative consequences to be less than the benefit the meddling provides. Sometimes the negative consequences are not immediately obvious, but they are always there. The small number of people...
