Co-signed by a Republican and a Democrat from Michigan, the proposed legislation would expand existing federal restrictions on connected cars from China.

    China isn’t paying half the cost. It’s like 10%. I am not going to bother looking up the source I’ve used in the past to argue

    Can I beggar you to post the source? A lot of my opinion on the matter assumes they’ve been subsidizing it a lot more than 10 ish percent and some proof that isn’t the case would go a long way to swaying me.

      $231B in Chinese subsidy, but that includes mining, battery production and incentives to replace ICE in China, along with proper charging infrastructure.

        Yeah, I keep meaning to dig out a video I saw on youtube that breaks down how China manages to keep it’s labor costs so low. I feel like it needs to be a significant part of the discussion on this, but its also difficult to quantify the costs of restricting movement within your own borders.

      This is the only article I could find on the topic that actually compares figures for both countries (almost all the articles I saw just mention a number for china and talk about their market share).
