“In the United States, direct manufacturer auto sales are prohibited in almost every state by franchise laws requiring that new cars be sold only by dealers.” From: “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_dealerships_in_North_America”
I think it’s time to trash such laws. If I want to buy a truck or car, and I want to buy it from the manufacturer (because I know the local dealer runs his dealership like he was running a drug dealership, for example) then I should be able to do so, and no bureaucrat should be able to tell me different!
I’m really sick of these Progressives/Fabian Socialists thinking they have a mandate to interfere with how I live my life.
