<< I don't understand your objection.

Tesla exists. Cars are an existing and crowded market. And yet, despite that, Tesla managed to not only enter, but survive. If that is possible, parent's claim that:

"The only way to get ahead these days is to either 1) flout the laws or 2) have enough capital and political influence to force your way to success, such as with regulatory capture."

is simply not accurate.

<< It's either an accurate way of looking at things or not.

Based on example of Tesla, it is not accurate.
