    China is flooding the market with cheap EVs just like they have with solar panels, so that they can get the upper hand. EVs made with slave labor and shit safety practices.

    You have to have tariffs or it’s just a race to the bottom.

      Fuck your economy and fuck your race to the bottom too. The only race we’re running in is the one to extinction.

        LOL okay maybe you’d like to apply to be a volunteer at one of the auto plants in China so they can exploit your labor “for the environment”?

      Now if only the US could adopt ECE, and we could have some sort of EU/US/Canada union/free trade area. Maybe North Atlantic Treaty Organisation 2.0 (without Hungary and Turkey)?
