Yeah who knows I could be totally wrong. I don't put much stock in anyone's future predictions anymore.
When was the last time an economist was right about anything?

Maybe. A century of auto construction has its benefits. Upstarts have teething problems galore.
All of my F150’s lasted decades. I fully expect my 2024 to be similar.
I’ll bet a dollar Chinese cars will suffer from needless and unnecessary problems

Guilt free I might add
We would be quite foolish to allow Chinese companies to flood the car market with their cars.
It would but I think you'd be surprised how many would take them and let it happen.
Oh for sure, this very thread is evidence of people glamorizing Chinese products.

Ain’t it 2/3 of the world’s new coal plants ?
Whomever has never flown over and landed there needs to see it

And many are willing to cede the auto business... I just don't get it.
China has its own problems though so how this all pans out long term is anyone's guess.
"It's bad. It's really bad. Over 20% of unemployment. Millions of youth with a university degree are unable to find a job. At the same time, good plumbers and electricians are making good money. Very similar to Europe and the US actually. The Chinese government refuses to invest in technical schools so young students don't want to enroll in an underfunded trade school. Jobs like delivery driver or taxi driver are saturated with hardly any income. EV factories have been warned to slow down. I don't see where jobs are supposed to come from.
Over 12 million Chinese graduated in July...Next year another 12 million...What on earth are they going to do with them? Send them to the countryside?"

You put a lot of that in quotation, what is the source?
A guy living in China right now. Early 20's.
