Foreign investment would be an economic boost for Mexico. The company has claimed that a plant there would create about 10,000 jobs. A Tesla competitor, BYD markets its Dolphin Mini model in Mexico for about 398,800 pesos—about $21,300 dollars—a little more than half the price of the cheapest Tesla model.

      Said it a while ago, the US is losing at capitalism for the first time in modern history and doesn’t know how to cope

        Oh it knows how to cope, it’s why it’s pushing the neo-feudalism.

        They want a class of slave labor to use like China, not those pesky workers with rights like they have now. It’s a race to the bottom and China has the lead.

          like China

          Not been to China recently eh? Or ever.

          They have free education and health care, affordable housing and government pensions. Things that taxes should be spent on instead of wars, destabilising governments you don’t like, and funding genocidal maniacs.

            instead of wars, destabilising governments you don’t like, and funding genocidal maniacs.

            Instead they’re supporting Russia and Putin in the war, harass the Philippines at sea, infiltrate the government in Hong Kong and prepare to capture Taiwan.
