Too many Chinese green technology products? Not really, but still too few. Energy_mobility transitions should proceed rapidly in order to confront the Climate Crisis. Cheap solar panels, batteries and electric vehicles are indispensable to avoid a climate catastrophe. From a Washington perspective there are too many just because policy decisions were made to have low prices and low wages outside the West in order to have low inflation, environmental deregulation and a stable dollar even with enormous deficits. So it’s just harvesting what you sowed. (Aside, Mexico is a sovereign country and is willing to embrace the green energy transition. BYD’s plans to build a plant has not been cancelled.)

The US's main issue is it has failed to invest adequately in its own industries. It has also allowed ridiculous flight of capital to low/no tax regimes like Ireland. The end result is a loss of confidence and steady undermining of the country's capacity to produce high tech capital and consumer goods. This is shown in the many high end consumer goods coming from China that simply cant be matched by stuff produced in US, mainly because the US has not invested. Aggressive pro-investment strategies would likely turn things around.

You are bang on as to the OEMs getting most of their parts from China. This is true for their EVs and ICE cars equally. Sure GM gets a lot of stuff from Hyundai industries but most of the subcomponents, particularly electric ones like motors and switches and circuit boards, come from China first. Lock the door completely against Chinese imported cars and they are likely to say to the OEMs "No more parts". This will crash the OEMs and madly drive up their costs. If they can find a way to source the parts, after being shutdown for months and months, they will be more expensive and the OEM car prices will rise even further.

They didn't mind cheap chinese products destroying American jobs 30 years ago when it was made with US patented licences. US Big-Tech investors were making good profits on it. Now that those cheap chinese products are more and more made with chinese patents and the US Big tech investors cannot make their big profits, US job losses become suddenly an important political narrative.
The UK’s car industry was virtually wiped out by the Japanese in the 1970’s despite tariffs being imposed. Truth is our cars were plain awful.

American owned the market before the 80's. I had a $8000 brand new Firebird and it stalled in the middle of busy road and GM mechanic treated it as a small simple problem. After that I never bought another American car.
If the U.S. can or want to build good quality and good performance EV's for their own market then fine. We all want to support our own country's economies. But what alternatives to Americans have. Ford? GM? They're years behind. Am I correct in saying that even Tesla says its 'Redwood' or Model 2 will be built in China? Four things to remember: Is it safe, is it reliable, is it economical..... and how much is it? When was the last time you DIDN'T buy something you really wanted because of where it was made?
If u want to compete then start working hard like chinese.
When someone says trade with another country cost you jobs they are idiots. Trade makes both partners in the trade better offer (why would anyone accept a trade if it wasn't in their best interests to make the trade?). The lost jobs are in companies that can't compete--they are products that are not demanded because of poor quality or high cost. We should all understand that other countries also buy from us, which is only possible because we buy from them.

Free market means everybody should compete with each other, which will bring better products and cheaper prices to consumers. However, it is not FAIR competition to have European or American companies try to compete with Chinese companies who are receiving subsidies from the government specifically for export products. It is fair to expect Renault or Ford to compete squarely against a Chinese company, but it is NOT fair to expect them to compete against the Chinese government.
There is no “cheap Chinese EV” in US, but they did let “cheap” comrade VinFast factory 8n California, and there is no two million EV auto workers in US, lol.
Gas lighting the problem, while technology is moving forward… America had the first position to be a world leader and try evolving beyond the crude oil pay wall… But like any troglodyte they kept winning until it didn’t… So now competition is coming and they don’t have backup plans… The best thing to do is a partnership plan and try to build up their proprietary technologies on the down low until they have grown in strength…

Or shift emphasis to where we can add value. Kind of like how Apple makes more money than the manufacturers that make its phones in China.

@@larryevans6739Apple could be shutdown practically overnight by the Chinese. They know it and We know it. Can’t have the same happening with Automakers and Missile Components and other vital things. It’s why Apple is trying to move major parts of their manufacturing outside of China. But they’re still vulnerable because of components that come from China and are shipped to the new countries.

Don’t confuse AMERICA with Legacy Automakers. Tesla will continue to grab more market share in the US as Legacy Auto shrinks because they are more interested in stock buybacks and CEO Bonuses than building the future of Automotive.
Trump said his terrifs were to pressure chinese companies to come to America to manufactor and create jobs. The only solution is for American companies to step up.
These corporate entities don't have a vested interest in preserving any community, automation and profit is their goal
If America wants to use its own overpriced craps, let it be as the world is a much bigger market. 😂😂😂😂

reality is nobody gives a damn what U$ wants. US is finished, it barks but the chinese caravan moves on.
Isn’t one of the reasons electric cars are not profitable in China the price war that Tesla started? You could say that Tesla is a threat to Chinese car companies because they were flooding the China market with cheap cars with the obvious goal of driving those car companies out of business. That is what has made the prices unstable. All the undercutting in the price war is unsustainable for many companies, but of course this was the goal. However you didn’t see the Chinese getting all upset and saying they wouldn’t allow it even though it was a serious threat to their car companies.

YES. CHINA DID say something about it. Go back and research. They were very upset because the government backs a lot of those Chinese Car companies.
Hello mate, your microphone has this low thumping sound that comes and goes, not sure if you’re bumping the speakers or possibly the desk. I use headphones and its really noticeable. Hope that helps
Chinese pickup trucks from BYD & Geely will be launched very soon, but probably not in America (yet).
Basically, if you cant compete with the competitors, you're out of the game. Lower prices are always good for consumers, unless u want to pay alot more for american or local made EVs. Overcapacity statement only applies if its in your domestic control, it does not apply to other sovereign countries. U cant tell other countries theyre selling green energy items at a lower price and at a large quantity. You have no right to, well unless you're US cos they dont care about international law and free market mechanics
And what is with the Tesla robots for the automotive industry? No loss of jobs?
I don't care even if it is 20 million American jobs.

He keeps getting this wrong and I point it out in every video. Sometimes i think he is doing it to spite me. However, the real "chicken tax" on pickups, plus the 27.5% tariffs on Chinese vehicles add up to 52.5% in total tariffs.... which is why Chinese automakers are not focusing on pickups for the US market.
i mean something's gotta give, the average car is $50k at 7% interest.. prices are only going up, and americans are car dependent.. ppl are already driving without insurance because they cant afford it

No. Prices in EVs have been going down and there’s a $7,500 incentive too. The EVs being made in the next 3 to 5 years will be in the $25K to $30K without Chinese vehicles and before the $7,500 incentive.
Li Auto is also making money on their PHEV which only competes with BYD and much less competitive
What dumping? EV on average is about $17k in China. When they are sold in Europe, it's $38k.
Toyota used to build most of cars in Japan and ship them to America for simple assembly .
The big difference …auto jobs are union and solar jobs are not.
We need to focus on things we can compete with China. Although clearly Tesla is doing it. We need to give Americans opportunity for jobs by allowing LFP manufacturing etc. Likely M3P would be good also. More joint ventures that create jobs here.

While American workers Union was suing Tesla for 550 million because of over work and unhealthy working ethics, in response Tesla fired all the workers and moving abroad.
I always thought that things would get cheaper in the future because they were easier to produce, but that’s not true easier to produce now they’re just jacking up the prices. Remember back in the early actually midnight when you could get a key radio for $6000 out the door, it was basic but still it was a $6000 card that could get you from point to point me
Janet is right about concerns related jobs but then so is China related to advancing green technology. The bottom line is the climate is going to revamp the world making areas livable and others not so much. Pollution continues to rise and illness will dramatically increase over coming decades if nothing is done to change course. She said it’s about saving jobs but truly it’s in the interest of CEOs of major companies by saving them. The ironic notion is jobs will increasingly be on the chopping block thanks to AI and automation. Job loss will be picking up speed over the next several years so really in the end Janet’s mission is not what it appears to be. Technology and climate change will have the final say as neither can be stopped. The question and concern then become how much time is left?
How many US jobs have been destroyed ny automation and off-shoring. It was Yellin and her ilk which promoted these.
Just million jobs. How many lives US made people lose in middle east?
Like in coordination with Yellen, just couple days ago a local Los Angeles public transportation service that using electric buses just suspended their service to the locals who depend on commuting, claiming the buses has charging problems that has potential safety issues. That locality is exactly where BYD’s E bus factory is located. Coincidence? maybe! But my hunch is they are scheming to force BYD to sell it to US companies, just like want they are trying to do to TikTok.
David Haggith, an economics writer and author of The Great Recession Blog, said the U.S. commercial real estate (CRE) crisis may be worse than the market is talking about. He warned that this would cause millions of people to go bankrupt, and that 1,619 banks may be at risk of failure if the Federal Reserve does not "step in" to rescue them.

Not really, if wasn't for Shanghai, Tesla would still make a lost and selling far less cars.

Notice the top bosses in China could not be bothered seeing “Meemaw” from US&A as they predicted the waste of time from her - the senile yada yada from her about manufacturing capacity of others…now back to funny farm she goes!
Legacy Auto Companies around the world had made billions of dollars profits in China for many years. But when China make their own car and starting to sell them to the world at a lower price, benefiting the middle class people, the USA, and other legacy, auto companies don't want that to happen . China Auto Companies is disrupting the Auto Legacy Companies of high profits earnings, and that is bad for the world economy . USA, USA, USA, 😉💖🔋🌞💯🌏✌️
The problem is they keep telling us that we want bigger trucks and cars with more tech but thats simply not true. We want practical vehicles we can afford. A 25k body on frame pickup and a sub 20k EV would fit the bill.
Until the charging situation is sorted and people can trust the charging system, both in Britain AND in America, the electric vehicle will not be a viable proposition for many people.

I just asked Bing Copilot how many charging stations there are: United States: As of November 8, 2022, there are approximately 56,256 EV charging stations across the U.S. China: As of May 2022, China boasts a much larger network of EV charging stations. The total number of public EV charging stations in China is approximately 1.419 million.
I want a BYD vehicle . Certain states should be allowed to import them for sale
if the US allow the Chinese companies operation in US, then there would be more jobs in US.
