i’m all for using tariffs to expand your local productive capacity, but describing market forces as “invasion” is just silly. You want invasion? France is still running an old-school colonial empire – for fuck’s sake, they’re charging reparations for “”““freeing””“” the countries they violently took over in the first place!
Yes colonialism bad… But that’s not what we’re discussing here.
If your government is deliberately funding industry so that they’re able to flood markets at stupid low prices, even at a loss and with the sole goal to destroy competition and take over than that can be seen as an invasion. I’m not saying any other country is doing better or worse. Yes, France is still doing bad stuff, so is the UK.
I never said that. As a country they are taking giant leaps and bringing prosperity to their civilians.
But they are doing the same as, for example Uber. This company has never made any profit and is purposefully pushing competitors out of the market while they keep pouring funds into the bottomless pit.
Same for Ryanair.
Disruptors enter the market with war funds. They deliberately lose money with the promise that when the dust clears they will be the last man standing.

Google image pictures of China and tell me if they look like they are running businesses at a loss because they are evil, mischievous orientals
