Comment on Cars are so expensive that buyers need seven-year loansparent

Car dealers are a scourge on Americans and a hidden tax imposed via poor legislation. They employ thousands and are generally very wealthy so regrettably they have become an embedded political entity.

I don't know what the answer to them is other than to remove the anti-DTC laws but that seems unlikely.

In a small town I used to live in, the car dealerships essentially financed the entire town. Their sales taxes paid roughly 80% of the town budget. The dealers could have murdered people in broad daylight and the sheriff would have handcuffed the corpse.
