    likely economic deregulation

    Friendly reminder that putting businesses in charge of regulation doesn’t result in deregulation, it results in different regulation - removing what hurts them and adding what helps them (protectionism, barriers to entry to hurt small fry, etc).

      That’s such a good/interesting point!

      I guess by deregulation, I’m thinking removal of the kind of consumer focused safety regulations that I’d be interested in if I was buying an EV.
