I would like a Chinese EV, but the capitalists are enforcing protectionism.

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 11 points 2 months ago (8 children)

I would too, but you have to understand why the USA is blocking these cars from coming in. The cost of these cheap EVs are not based off of supply and demand. Its not even this cheap because of effectiveness or efficiencies. Its from the CCP subsidies. The CCP wants to dump on the competition in efforts to kill off anyone making a car, then start jacking up the price after they have market share.

I'm also pretty sure their security / safety standards are pure ass. I barely trust our automakers, I sure as shit don't trust the fucking CCP

So capitalism.

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes, we get to prioritize USA industries vs China's. I'm down for that.

State capitalism, but yes.

We don't want that evil capitalism here in the US. No sir.
