Protectionism. Musk stands to gain a ton if there’s less competition from imported EVs, and that’s true for a lot of other products that American companies make. If you can just throw a few million at a presidential campaign and essentially guarantee your competitors will have a 10-60% disadvantage, those few millions can turn into billions in profit.
On paper, the goal seems to be to spur companies to return to the US, but I think the net impact will be higher prices for Americans and reduced trade w/ other countries due to retaliatory tariffs.
necessary for what?
necessary for what, motherfucker?
Your comment has the same energy as "states’ rights to do what?", and I’m here for it.
If I wasn’t at work I’d edit the goose meme to match.
I love that meme
