maybe the USA should agree to recognize the ICC?
Why? What would that accomplish?

Ukraine had "unfair" elections, so Putin stole Crimea from them. It's super logical.

Gun manufacturers are often sued on similar grounds, and those lawsuits always fail
What gun manufacturer was ever sued for violating export curbs? I think you should spend more time on Wikipedia.

In a civilized world, the US and China would have a mutual extradition treaty so criminals could face justice.
Unfortunately for the CCP, rejecting human rights is one of their top four most fundamental principles. We can't have an extradition treaty with a country that doesn't even pretend to care about its people.

Perhaps standard, but didn't we always say that all Chinese officials are "corrupt".
What era are you thinking of when Chinese officials weren't corrupt? This guy is being accused of corruption by the CCP.

Ford can build that kind of car. They can't get batteries that cheap.
Comment Re:What is "oversupply"? (Score 1) 157
What exactly does it mean to "oversupply" something? The only way I can interpret that is they make so many cars and batteries that inventory hangs out in warehouses, unable to be sold at any price. How exactly is that bad for consumers?
That is the argument Milton Friedman made.
"But, but, but, monopolies!" I hear people sputter. Yes, companies trying to compete with them now may fail.
Sounds like you know what the problem is. Think of it like the DeBeers diamond cartel on steroids.
When the subsidies stop, I'm confident new companies will pop up to fill the void.
Then the subsidies will start again until those new companies disappear.

The USA is able to develop batteries. China has taken control of the lithium pipeline, the same way they've taken control of the rare earths pipeline (through poor environmental and anticompetitive practices). The CCP doesn't care if they poison their own people.
