Politicians say they have “national security concerns.” In fact, Chinese cars are better and cheaper, and American corporations know they can’t survive market competition.

    American companies have admitted outright that, if Chinese vehicles were allowed in US markets, they wouldn’t be able to compete.

    It’s a better product.

      We have given up a lot to baby the American auto industry. Our health is poorer due to non-walkable cities and the stress of commuting. Our highways tore through a lot of minority communities. Our carbon footprint is higher than it could be. We can’t even have cheaper EVs.
