Comment Re:There is no unmet demand in the US (Score 1) 24

These Chinese EVs are hitting the market at $8,000-10,000 new. The cheapest EVs in the US currently are about 3 times as much with the average EVs 5-6 times higher. At those prices, the Chinese EVs would be wildly popular. They'd arguably hurt the US automakers, which is why we're not allowing them into the market today.

"you understand that we're still going to need doctors in the future, right?"

And that is exactly why "equal" is the road to hell. You will do nothing for the average and lower performers and you will demotivate and lose the (far too few) ones with better mental potential. A sure way to ruin any society. The way to go is "equal opportunity" at some point pretty early on and then it must depend on what you actually bring to the table personally.

Yep. Too many big-ego idiots around that like to think they can do anything they set their minds to. What they actually do is oversimplify things and then try simpler-than-possible approaches. That always fails, but if enough idiots go along with a hype, that failure can be delayed for years and become much more severe in its impact on society.
