The article is about Rivian lol

Fuck oil majors tho...

Chinese imports are a strawman. It’s like yelling about why the OLED LG TV is $2000 when you could buy a HiSense LED TV for $250. You’re not comparing the same quality level of product.

Sure thing 🤡

Yes, it is about Rivian. It’s also about the US investing in on-shore manufacturing jobs, skills, and knowledge through Rivian.

Providing state aid is not investment
Investment is business of private capital
Benefit to the border public is at best "jobs"

Fixing the tax code could ie remove incentives for offshoring would also work to bring back manufacturing jobs or tariffs but no... Broke pedons have to pay for some rich mans CapEx so big the tech wage slaves can afford their 50k electric truck 🤡

Your clown logic is why we live in this dystopia

Brain dead corpo welfare queens are disgusting but you LARP with serious bravado as if reading from a PR release;)
