The heavy subsidy by the Chinese government is the reason they would dominate though. The tariffs won’t ever be lifted unless they stop manipulating the prices to be lower than domestic competitors…
They would dominate because they make a good product that isn’t more expensive than it has to be. US car companies have discontinued most affordable options to try and force people to only buy larger, higher end vehicles that most people have no use for. Now they’re mad that international companies are willing to sell the products they refuse to.
Yes, usa car companies are bitches. But it is laughable that you think the reason it isn't more expensive has nothing to do with being subsidized
The reason it is vastly less expensive is due to being subsidized. You don’t seem to understand what is being said and can be backed by facts.
Allowing your local industries to be dominate is common sense. As much as china is smart to subsidize theirs so heavily, the united states isn't wrong to tariff them
