I'm old enough to remember how they were bailed out during the 2008 financial crisis). All this is just pretext. The reality is that Chinese EVs are cheaper and far better, and yes, they would be very successful because of you know, competition. I can't wait to get my hands on a Chinese EV.

Something like filing a tax return is a huge barrier for low-income people who very likely do not have the necessary access to or experience with computers to do it, and consequently miss out on precisely the benefits that they need.
