    The rest of the world will get cheaper solar panels and EVs, that’s quite nice.

      Cheap panels are tanking European competitors, but it’s probably too late to intervene at this point. Can’t compete with work camps and cheap slave labor.

        you seriously think the ONLY possible explanation for cheap solar panels is “cheap slave labor?”

        not the fact that the chinese government has heavily subsidized these industries? your only explanation is work camps? where are the pictures of these work camps, the stories from all of those people who came to the US from China, they must have something to say about all of the slavery and work camps!

        get fucking real and stop living in lib fantasyland

        Correct… using work camps and cheap slave labour was only acceptable when US companies shipped production to China and pocketed the profits… now that China is doing it directly, it’s certainly a problem we all care about
