President Biden is in the news. Trying to seem tough on China, he announced a tariff on Chinese electric vehicles– that they aren’t selling in America anyway.
Do you know what Biden won’t put a 100% tariff on? Things like cobalt, graphite, and lithium, both of which are needed for the production of electric vehicles (duties on those materials will be 25 percent according to the White House announcement). Now, take a wild guess who controls most of the world’s supply of those things, either directly or by proxy? Yes, that would be China.
This was something many Republicans warned about when Biden passed his ridiculous and damaging electric vehicle subsidies. It was essentially an outsourcing of America’s transportation sector to a hostile communist dictatorship. Democrats soldiered forward, though, passing the laughably-named “Inflation Reduction Act” (inflation rose again last month), creating an incentive system that greatly benefits Chinese interests.

If China was going to sell cars in America, they’d do it through Mexico anyway.
