"New Jersey's governor Christie has decided that all new motor vehicles must be sold through middlemen. This blocks Tesla from directly selling cars, without traditional car sellers.

    It will create sooooooo many jobs!

    New Jersey also happens to be one of two states in the U.S. where the consumer cannot pump his own gas. All stations became "Full Serve" only back in 1949, and it's because of durka err jerbs.

    As a New Jersey resident, I greatly appreciate the full service gas station experience. Plus, the gas costs less than in neighboring states. I don't see a downside.
