Did we hand Tesla a monopoly when we allowed them to build a bunch of electric cars when no one else was willing to take them seriously?

- hnbad 5y agoNot but you handed them a monopoly by allowing them to install charging stations with a proprietary connector throughout the country.
- signatoremo 5y agoWhat was the non-proprietary charging option circa 2012 when they started building the charging network? Also, who else were denied license to build the charging stations at that time to allow for Tesla monopoly? Or was it that everyone else amusingly laughed at the cute effort by an electric mobility upstart who didn’t know better?
