So Tesla is getting US government subsidy's and then they will build in China for the China market.

So we just subsidized the China car market with technology and get nothing in return.

Just great.

Like with Bombardier Trump will tax them 200%, or will he?

Ultimately, road taxes will be based on the vehicle mass and the miles driven, using some formula guaranteed to be unfair to all! Fuel taxes no longer pay the way.

Car sales are really down across the board in US. Truck and SUV sales are up. Let us know when Ford or GM sends truck production to China and that might mean something.

Very first lines of the article:

"In a move that highlights the shifting landscape of global auto production, Ford Motor said Tuesday that it would build its next-generation small car in China rather than in the United States or Mexico. The decision underscores the potential for China to export more vehicles for sale to American buyers ..."
