Want to know the key to what makes the automobile economy keep going? It is heavily subsidized around the world. China's automobile industry is no exception:

🚫 Boycotting Intel until US govt dumps their shares.
Gov stakes in failing companies? That's cronyism, not capitalism.
Before you @ me:
📍National security → Use contracts, not equity
📍Jobs → Bailouts delay death, kill innovation
📍China → Beat them by competing better
Intel: -60% value, can't compete
AMD/NVIDIA: Winning on merit 💪
Every $ you spend = a vote. I'm voting for actual competition.
Am I wrong? Convince me 👇

Once free-market advocates, Trump’s economic team now defends state-led capitalism as the only way to compete with China’s subsidised, strategically-directed economy.
The government has taken a $8.9bn, 10% stake in Intel, and the Pentagon has bought 15% of MP Materials, a rare earth producer, while guaranteeing it above-market prices. #freemarket
If you are in #business and you claim #regulation is burdensome, you are admitting that your only goal is to utterly maximize your own gains through screwing people over, and you don't want someone looking over your shoulder while you do it.
"Free" markets are just a playground for amoral economic predators.
These developments could herald a shift from America’s vaunted #FreeMarket system to one that resembles, at least in some corners, a form of #state-managed #capitalism more frequently seen in #Europe &, to a different degree, #China & #Russia, say lawyers, bankers & academics steeped in the history of #HostileTakeovers & international #business
