Yeah, it’s so unfair that China is subsidizing the green transition!
Also, are we just forgetting about the unfair competition from subsidized farmers in the US destroying Mexican farms and forcing them to travel north to do agricultural labor in the US?
The subsidies aren’t for the green transition, the subsidies are there to get more influence on the markets, and not just the car market. Outprice the competition…
And no I didn’t forget about “what about…”
Sadly both have a same goal. Both influence competition in a bad way.
That’s just their cover story for their base. It’s actually about protecting the US auto and oil and gas industries and keeping profits flowing to the right people.
I thought the main problem was unfair competition from subsidized car makers. The same problem as de European car market.

Uh huh, then why aren’t they subsidizing gas cars to the same extent?
Subsidizing electric cars is good and y’all need to stop making excuses.
They are subsidizing gas cars,… and fossil fuel production is also subsidized.
And yet their gas cars are not being sanctioned. Doesn’t that strike you as strange? What’s the difference?
No, because those aren’t a threat to the (western) car marked. The electric ones are.
And the fact that China is currently controlling the battery resources. Also seems to be an influence.
But please buy one if you want one.
So I’m not sure what you think my point was.
I’m not saying the US is attacking China for having a green transition. I know it’s just to protect business interests.
