like I noted many pages ago, you are probably correct, but it will be a long, tedious and costly undertaking. while the public detests the concept of lobbying the guys who have the power to alter the business is conducted seem to not be very inclined to end the way the lobbyists do their thing.
apv, I appreciate the humor in your new signature comment... it is funny, and good to see you can have a laugh about things.
didn't realize you'd agreed that this is probably the ultimate course this will run.
to be clear though, Tesla need not take on and overthrow the whole lobbying system (of course, that would be nice), they just need such an overwhelming public show of support (I wouldn't be surprised if it reaches 90+%) to counter the impact of the lobbying that will almost certainly continue to be in place two years from now. so Tesla's task will take resources, time and money, but nothing like the resources it would take to overthrow the lobbying system.
