Led by the automaker BYD, China has established itself as the main car supplier in Mexico. The US worries China could use Mexico as a “back door” to sidestep tariffs and gain footing in the US market.

    Oh no! That would be horrible if Americans had access to cheap electric cars! Free market capitalism until it benefits the consumer.

      This kills the UAW. Just like Walmart selling cheap shit from China killed retail.

        Just because China is funding the green revolution doesn’t mean we should have to eat shit.

        Either get the US government to subsidize our own green revolution, or the UAW can make affordable cars.

        Free market my ass.

        They are building factories in Mexico now. Whatever plan we had to keep them from behind made in China and shipped over failed.
