People in Tennessee would shoot them down...

"Bagged me one of them Arabia Birds"

They don't make sense in Tennessee. In Seattle? Slam dunk. Boeing missed the boat.

What regulation stopped anyone from investing in that drone?

doogie

Few regulations would stop most from investing in it.

Not a single state, county or city would allow it to fly with passengers in the US( economic viability)

Not that I'm surprised by your complete ignorance on the subject. But here's some education.

Keep screaming "regulations!!!" Someone will hear you.

Not that I expect anything other than your complete ignorance on the subject but, there are none flying in the US accepting passengers.

Now, go quote another meaningless regulation.

The GOED and the Nevada Institute for Autonomous Systems reached an agreement with EHang last month and "will help guide EHang through the FAA regulatory process with the ultimate goal of achieving safe flight," according to the GOED statement.
