China does have a habit of market dumplings. It doesn’t play nice with trade. But no where does. China is just very good at flooding market with stuff that is artificially cheap. By say, not bothering to test it meets the regulations of the market. Or using slave trade. Or just straight subsidiaries.
Also all modern cars, EV or otherwise, and straight spy machines.
China is a problem, but cars isn’t where I’d start. (As long as they have been proved safe). I’d start with cheap electronics that don’t meet regulations all over Amazon and EBay. A lot is just environmentally bad as it’s just throwaway. Some is a fire risk.
China is just very good at dystopian capitalism.
I think that’s regular capitalism. At least at far as everyone plays it.
The most popular Chinese EVs, the ones shipped internationally, are treated as rigorously as those if any other country and recently BYD specifically have begun receiving safety scores higher than cars from other countries.
Market dumplings? Haven’t heard that one before, what’s that?
Yes, but democracy keeps capitalism in check normally, but not in China.
I’ve heard nothing but good things about modern Chinese EVs. But they still need to be checked, and keep being checked, as the China has a terrible history with regs. Also, if they are market dumping again, there needs to be tariffs to counter it.
Raw free trade is a tragedy of the commons nonsense. Protectionism is self defeating. In the real world, most places are between those two rails.
Market dumping is flooding a market.with your goods at a loss. It can because you have excess you want to recoop what you can from. It can also be a weapon to take over a market and destory competition.
China does not do altruism. Their car manufacturers are owned and subsidized by the government. They’re made to saturate and destroy markets with cheap goods, driving out the competition. Once there is no competition, they have the market to themselves and can manipulate as they see fit.
Weird that you are confusing such discrete, almost antithetical concepts as altruism and capitalism.
Yes, Chinese auto companies are trying to corner part of the auto market like every other car company in every country does.
And now they’re doing it with inexpensive EVs receiving top marks in safety and manufacture, according to the top global standards.
So you can whine about all car companies trying to sell a product(seems like a waste of time) or provide actual evidence that the safety ratings for Chinese EVs are false in some way.
Right now you’re spewing irrelevant tangents that have nothing to do with the EV industry.
A totalitarian government that allows slave labor, genocide and wants to invade Taiwan. Really?
You don’t get why we shouldn’t be trading with China And instead should ge enabling our own EV manufactures ?
