Electric cars should be cheaper than gasoline cars! They are so much simpler mechanically and barely require maintenance. You can even have a motor for each wheel. There’s the issue of lithium dendrites of course, but this is getting better all the time.
there are also alternatives to lithium https://www.scmp.com/business/china-business/article/3211430/chinese-ev-maker-jac-unveils-worlds-first-car-powered-cheaper-sodium-ion-battery
“wah wah wah We’ve self-imposed austerity and neoliberalism on ourselves and other countries are eclipsing us cause of their actual realistic economic model on future development through state planning wah wah us whites are the only ones who are supposed to be advanced wah wah” Summed up the sentence there.
MF have you been to China? Half the cars are electric and they’ve been manufacturing them for years.
Electric cars are much cheaper to produce than gas cars. Once you get the technology and the scale up to a certain level, you don’t need gov subsidies to be competitive.
So what is she going to do about it? Also it is not like both petrol/diesel cars and the oil industries are not heavily subsidised as well.
I can not say enough how fucking much I love planned economies.
this sentence is also why I am such a nerd
The funniest part to me is that all megacorps are run as planned economies, and western economists are still pretending that markets are superior to central planning. It’s just complete brain rot. One of my fav stories on the subject is how Sears ended up imploding by drinking the free market koolaid and trying to run the company on that principle https://www.versobooks.com/en-ca/blogs/news/4385-failing-to-plan-how-ayn-rand-destroyed-sears
这帮西方政客就知道补贴呗 然而中国电动产业能起来靠的是一套周密且复杂的产业发展规划其中包括:人才储备,政策引导,产业结构优化,市场培育,基础设施建设,配套服务建设等等 。我们在大学里开始相关专业的时候,我们造水电站,光热电站,核电站,超临界火电站,光伏电站还有各种各样的储能设施,还有特高压输电线路以及全国范围的超充网的时候,你们说这玩意儿低效,不民主,不自由。现在我们搞成了你们就开始怨我们补贴。离谱
As an automobile major, I am really angry.
I love how translation from Chinese to English can capture so much feeling in so few words, compared to the original!
Just kidding. :)
I’m learning Chinese, thank you for your post in Chinese, it helps with my vocabulary in a context other than duolingo. :)

Possible explanation in the China Bad Times Expanded Universe
The first sentence is to explain what an automobile is* so Chinese people can wake up (能起). The second sentence explains that no car = not democratic and not freedom (不民主,不自由). The last sentence says that now (现在) that you stopped (了) the propaganda, you should start (始) getting cars.
*Did you know there’s no cars in China due to the authoritarian public transit system?
Finally, the last word means to be unreasonable (离谱) because in China they include the comments in the video, and some hater commented.
Seriously China should make a military alliance with Russia asap. Europe will go to war against China in few years
I don’t think Europe is in any position to go to war with China. However, US is certainly trying to goad China into a some sort of a conflict over Taiwan.
your dedicated fans have a 2nd opinion though !
