It does sadly. On the flip side, China seems to be trying to capture car manufacturing markets by subsidizing their producers. This would probably be a bad thing in the future if allowed. Hopefully the US government does more work on making it easier to purchase electric cars in the US(specifically the price) while also reducing the need for driving.

What exactly is wrong with a country subsidizing green energy products? Not only that, but making them available cheaply to other countries?

The US Government doesn't want US automakers to lose market share so that they have plenty of manufacturing capacity that could be retooled to make weapons in case of war.

When a trillion dollars a year doesn't commit enough warcrimes :(
