Laws and regulations around car dealerships are deeply ingrained into state and federal politics. I don't think we will see Chinese or Mexican EVs anytime.

It's a double whammy. We underfund public transportation so most people need a car.

We then add all types of strange protectionism around which cars can be sold.

No reason I shouldn't be able to order a new EV straight from Shenzhen.
