I honestly didn't realize that cars cost that much nowadays. I have a Prius that I bought secondhand, so the cost was pretty cheap for me, but it also has a pretty expensive engine that would be a pain to replace if it ever broke down. It was interesting to learn about how the government has restricted our free market on cars, and now I wonder how that limits our development as a country and if it has any ripple effects. It's frustrating that choices made by the president in favor of a more free market can be so easily changed by the next president that comes along, stifling any progress that could have been made.
It's interesting that you bring up the changing of presidents hands, it all comes down to keeping the power within the people.
your take was very interesting and understandable. i think your perspective was made very personal with your own experience so it was good.
