Are we going to completely ignore the absolute insanity of arresting someone for cheating on an exam.

You’d get killed on the interstate on one of those,
You guys in Illinois are crazy though. I learned very quickly how much that 55 MPH limit is a guideline and not a hard limit.
Speed restrictions.
Kei trucks were designed for use in dense Japanese cities, which is why they also work in European cities. They are nimble but have a low top speed. You’re not going 70 mph around a street corner for instance.
It would work in places like NYC for the same reasons, but remember that most of the USA is suburban or rural. You need vehicles that are capable of going fast if you’re going to get on a highway.
A possible workaround is to have a separate class for these, like mopeds or scooters, which are road legal but are not highway legal.
Yes, but then the more people can afford to buy EVs. Under the current system you need to be well off to buy one, vs an ICE.
Something something free market
That example you gave about yelling at a store clerk led to a man being murdered by the police in America (George Floyd).
It’s not whataboutism, it’s hypocrisy.
Curious, are planes manufactured by Boeing being considered in your comparison of Chinese made vs US made products?
Remember when the Patriot Act was a thing?
Surveillance of your citizens isn’t a CCP only thing.
Can’t wait for sanctions against India, am I right?
Leave that to the customer to decide. Or is that not the point of the free market?
Well, if the US spies on its own citizens can you imagine the shady shit they’d do on Chinese citizens?
I also wonder if restrictions on software are in response to the US restricting access to Huawei tech in allied nations. This shit is not new.
I also wouldn’t put it past US officials to inflate something for their own purposes - what if the Chinese requirement is for Chinese language software and it got turned around into Chinese software to serve an agenda.
Oh I read the article and found most of it to be rehashed arguments about Huawei.
Okay so you’re saying the US doesn’t stand a chance.
India has a billion and a half people too by the way. Where are India’s EVs?
China is the largest producer of EVs in the world by far (the next country on the list, Germany doesn’t even come close). In fact, China produces more EVs than the next 4 top producers combined.
The US is running scared because there is absolutely no way they can compete, unless they severely handicap the competition.
So, instead of free competition in Western markets, we have coddled American companies that are “too big to fail” that will continue producing obsolete technologies. If we haven’t already, we’ll start to see Boeing’s product issues in American cars.
Sure, and freedom of speech is considered a democratic principle.
Ladies and gentlemen, the world’s largest democracy
Have they tried getting them to play tic tac toe?
There’s a reason the US is targeting China from various fronts (trade restrictions, sanctions, etc.). China is a powerhouse and the US is terrified of being left behind.
Also not possible
