Whose fault is it?
It’s amazing what kind of leaps you can make with government funding research.
Yet US has incentives, mandates, and protectionism. Why aren’t US manufacturers 5-10 years ahead?
From the average American’s perspective? Probably still China. China always bad. Always.
Americans are also so lacking in moral consistency that they’ll throw their racism and xenophobia to the side just to save $1.
Have you ever handled anything made in China? It’ll be something invented somewhere else, implemented worse.
Don’t forget the IP theft!
Stealing IP from SUV companies to make cheap EVs is insanely based
Everyone does that though. My favourite is the original Xbox and everything from around the same time having notoriously bad capacitors because a faulty electrolyte formula was chain stolen.
