Maybe a smidgen of income and property taxes, sales/use taxes will be collected at the SOS, Secretary of State's office, when you register it. Importing a foreign car (out of state or out of country) isn't that big of a deal, they even wave some taxes or fees once in a lifetime for out of country imports.

... then whines about not having money to buildi a 2nd bridge from Detroit to Windsor, that the truckers won't use because thy hate Detroit traffic and Windsor isn't on the 402 to Buffalo like Port Huron is.

Dentsply is a good one.

A big part of that is because 1. the tax laws so highly favor car manufacturers, the state gets more revenue from dealer's than they do from the manufacturers, and 2 the UAW is a formidable voting block, you can't hurt big business without hurting big union.

No they just call it "Doc Fees" and "Dealer Prep" instead of maximum; and don't forget all of those options you didn't want but paid for anyway so you didn't have to wait 2 months for your order, and the option packages where you pay for 3 things you don't want to get the one you do.

epipen is only a monopoly because of Government regulations and requirements.

Not to mention banks making buttloads of money financing floor-plans and parts inventories; not as much today as in the past with manufacturer's having financial divisions making more money than the manufacturing does.

Tesla isn't being stopped from interstate commerce, they, a foreign corporation, are being stopped from engaging in commerce in the state of Michigan.

Most likely it depends on how you define Apple, My suspicion is the store are a wholly owned subsidiary corporation, and manufacturing is a owned subsidiary corporation as well, so legally they are two separate entities, what would stop Apple Stores, would stop Best Buy as well. It would be like telling Ford they can't sell cars in Michigan because I own stock in both Ford and GM!

Additionally it would be stupid for Tesla not to incorporate any stores in the states they are in because foreign corporations are at an disadvantage legally, it would be trivial for Tesla to draw up the legal agreements Michigan requires for franchised dealer, but Tesla doesn't want to be a franchised dealer, they only want to sell cars and the two aren't the same thing.

We have that in the US now, insurance companies dictate what we can charge, and who can pay. We have many instances of insurance dictate a procedure isn't a covered benefit, but we are not allowed to bill the patient. They frequently down-code procedures, and it's taking a couple months to get predeterminations back, so nobody really knows what anything will cost.

That would never work because then the Congress couldn't borrow against the Trust-fund; could you imagine the USG trying to pay back what they've borrowed already?

SS is an earned entitlement, if you don't want to pay out the agreed on benefits then reimburse Granny for what she paid in.

They don't need toilet paper, people don't shit without food to eat.

First of all stupidity is not a defense in a negligence offense, She signed an agreement to protect classified information in her possession from unauthorized dissemination and she failed. She was required to attend annual briefings on how to protect classified information that taught her what the (t), (s) and (c) meant so neither "I hit my head and don't remember" or "I'm stupid" or "I don't recall" doesn't apply. Comey being too corrupt or derelict or incompetent to properly and evenly enforce the law is a separate issue.

Your right, I brain cramped on the current requirement, a 4CX1000A pulls an amp so it would only put out 8 Watts at the cathode, but running through a transformer on the anode, it pumps out 1.6KW
