Elizabeth Warren has come out in favor of a National Right to Repair law.

Her proposal would apply only to farm equipment, so I do not think that it will go far enough, but it is a good start to putting the power of being able to do what you want with the things that you own.

Elizabeth Warren Calls for a National Right-to-Repair Law for Tractors

“The national right-to-repair law should require manufacturers of farm equipment to make diagnostic tools, manuals, and other repair-related resources available to any individual or business, not just their own dealerships and authorized agents,” Warren said. “This will not only allow individuals to fix their own equipment — reducing delays — but it will also create competition among dealers and independent repair shops, bringing down prices overall.”

Warren should go into the tractor business and offer this to her customers.

That doesn’t even begin to make sense as far as a response goes.

Of course not. Leftists want to force others to do their bidding rather than actually do it themselves. It’s the basis of totalitarianism.

If this is something the public wants and the tractor manufacturers can make a profit offering it, no law would be necessary. The free market would bring it about. No government coercion needed.

A quick yes or no.

When someone purchases a product, should they be able to have access to the tools it takes to maintain and repair that product or should the consumer be forced by law to go back to the manufacturer for repair and maintenance?
