I guess we've got a "both sides" situation. What other companies will NY state restrict from doing business (for purely political reasons)? This isn't the right way to play. Innovative business models to save money are not welcome in NY state.

Texas does it. Texas has done everything in its power to stop tesla sales for years. Also Trump totally restricting free markets. Trump and maga are socialist!

The president has literally shut down free trade. What is your point?

Sure. But Tesla (the company) has not disadvantaged this country.

How does piling on consumers in the middle of a poor economy and tariffs help anything?

So Tesla is the only company with a waiver right now? And they want to eliminate the waiver? Fine. That seems fair enough.

What would be better is to eliminate for all car companies the requirement to work with dealerships.

But as long as they've got that law, I see no reason why Tesla should get an advantage.

Elon musk should be disadvantaged the way he disadvantaged all of us in this country.

This is a very stupid plan. Even if we don't care about the country and about the moral high ground, is it really smart to contribute additional ideas to the marketplace of antidemocratic tactics intended to punish political opponents?

Democrats are out of power for the next four years. Does anyone really think Republicans won't respond by targeting a key Democratic donor or even an entire class of Democratic donors the exact same way?

The biggest problem this country has is that we have two cultish, power hungry parties that do not care about the country. I'm not surprised the moronic Democrats who run New York, who are second only to the numbskulls of California, are behind this.
