    Chinese government subsidizes EV production so this is not a fair competition. The only way to counter that and do local production subsidies (which US already does to some extent) and tariffs.

      Something needs to be different other than just punishing the Chinese. EV prices are shit in the US. It’s already unfair. These tariffs should be fed directly into subsidizing EV production and factory development with strict scrutiny (NOT blank check handouts to corporations)
