Yup. We knew this. But they won't let us buy the affordable cars because that sort of free market would put US companies out of business.

In this country, we have the FREEDOM to buy any overpriced domestic or foreign (assuming they're on the list of good foreign countries) tank-sized SUV you want.

Who ever thought the US would be a place where the federal government would prevent you from buying the coolest cars and coolest drones? Lame.
