    So, do you think Tesla’s should be banned worldwide? Or does it just refer to Chinese companies?

    What alternative strategy for increasing electric uptake would you propose. Currently the biggest 2 barriers to entry are price and in many areas, range concerns. Having higher uptake of cheap subsidied cars alleviates both, which is why there remains government subsidies available for certain vehicles.

    Should those subsidies vehicles also lose their subsidy?

      Unfortunately, you’re either dishonest or an idiot with poor reading comprehension. I think it’s the former. The words you decided to ignore were “below cost”. BYD sells a car for $10k, alternatively Tesla’s cheapest car is around $40k. If you can’t understand the difference, then I can’t help you.

        And you’re likely both. There is no need to jump to insults just because we disagree. I’m not going to further the discussion at this point.

        If below cost was your main point, perhaps don’t wait 5-10 comments in. The points that you raised up to that point we addressed in my initial comment.

        Learn to make your point more effectively and perhaps you’ll come across as less foolish and less abrasive when online.

          My apologies, you are an idiot. Below cost was literally contained in my first comment, I haven’t even made 5 comments, let alone 10.

          How ineffective of me to clearly state the point you failed to comprehend in my first post. Luckily being right means I don’t have to concern myself with being abrasive to idiots.
