With an exception carved out for Tesla, I’m sure.
In the same vein, all the techbros who voted for Trump are gonna be real asshurt once immigration exemptions are made for tech workers
Like silicon valley is gonna be forced to pay market rate for American talent, pffh, c’mon now. Wages are like prices but the opposite. Prices always go up and never back down. Wages always come down and never go back up. Tech workers enshittification will commence at triple pace now
Given our current education deficit, we’ve already had to import quite a bit of talent to keep up with being a first world country.
Example: when was the last time you encountered an Indian doctor?
Given the plans to make real/higher education accessible only to the wealthy, we’re going to need to import even more talent.
Tesla supports removing the tax credit, because they don’t need the tax credit as much as their competitors.
EV producers in the US are going to take a hit, whereas the ones in China and the EU would probably be fine.
Sounds like shooting itself in the foot.
Describe Trumps presidency in one sentence.
Sounds like shooting itself in the foot.
It’s worse than that. Trump is a danger for the environment and climate. And the whole world will suffer consequence.
Also wars, future pandemics, any kind of global cooperation that depends on the White House not being a madhouse, which is a lot.
Especially right after everyone began retooling factories to produce them and the rest of the world leaves us behind in development. America will be producing the Yugos of the 1980s in a few short years.
If memory serves me well, Yugos were made in former Yugoslavia and were known for being extremely cheap and dangerous for everyone in and around them. Am I correct?
But this makes me scratch my head.
American manufacturers exist in Europe today and regardless of not being a fan the cars sell, regardless the constant attempts to introduce pure US models, like the F series.
Ford may be the most widespread manufacturer but I’ve seen a few Dodge, Chevrolet (but GM officially pulled from the market after a 3 years run, stating it wasn’t willing to remain in a market where a minimum 25% of market share wasn’t attainable; competition sucks, apparently!), JEEP and Chrysler.
What is stopping these brands to import back the technology being used here, on their european models, back to the home country? It’s already owned here!
I remember reading an article on a joint project between GM and FIAT to develop a new and shared platform. After X number of years and a gross amount of money invested, GM drops the project, FIAT finishes it and starts building an entire new generation of cars, still being built today.
Why put time, money and effort into a project to just drop it? Having a shared platform, capable of being used to assemble vehicles on both sides of the ocean makes sense.
Wanna bet if Tesla gets an exception?
Yes but you only get the subsidy if you buy Melania’s book
German car makers are unfortunately dealing with the same issue since the incentives were cancelled.
Elon is not taking it deep enough
Apparently Tesla’s on board with this. Their thinking, which I think is correct, is that the rebate benefits other manufacturers more since Tesla is much more established as an EV brand.
Take him deeper Elon!
First lady is not going to be happy about it
