Chinese cars make record sales in Australia

[oldel]

By the time electric cars are commonplace and affordable I bet they're mostly chinese made. Not many trust their mechanicals, but the western world's corporations made them the global electronics/electrical powerhouse already.
Apparently selling phones for over $1k with cheap components didn't leave enough profit for apple and google to make them in the US despite USA's low wages and high manufacturing capability. They, and many other companies, would rather give away IP and support the Chinese regime than have local jobs. We treat them as the worlds factory and wonder why they treat us as merely 'the dirt farmers' and not as a fair and equal trading partner. The hole we've dug leaves us as serving them as subordinates.
