Trump team wants to scrap car-crash reporting rule that Tesla opposes

TL;DR this is related to Tesla's Autopilot (the rule "requires automakers to report crashes if advanced driver-assistance or autonomous-driving technologies were engaged within 30 seconds of impact"). Musk wants to not be held accountable for damages and casualties caused by his shitty software.
- Gosh it's a good thing that some rich bastard whose companies are subject to regulation isn't going to put in charge of some government position that he can leverage to quash any possible accountability he may be subject to...
It looks like the citizens of the USA are going to have to replace the government by 2026 with a different government run by the citizens of the USA.
- Unfortunately about half of us* are quite happy about how it's going.
  
  Edit: *who can vote and care enough to do so at all.
  
  22%ish actually. The actual percentage of US population that voted for this. (And maybe a few percent more for those that didn't vote.)
  
  Not half of everyone voted. I think we'd be better off if they did, but I can't blame them too much for sitting out when the other side still supports a genocide.
Nothing like nepotism to ruin everything.

$277 million well spent.

Always the start of a quality comment.
