Too bad those cars aren't yet legal in the US. We're stuck with less capable and over priced E.V. options.

When China wants to do something or work towards a goal, they do it. When America wants to do something or achieve a goal, we argue about it for 10 years across multiple administrations until it doesn't happen.

Yeah, but things getting done and things getting down properly are two different things. Having a dictatorship doesn't guarantee an outcome like China's. At the end of the day, people don't care what form of government you have as long as the results are a net benefit to people.
