This is why there are tariffs, taxes and fees on imports.The reasons for an industry or business being noncompetitive are basically four:
- Their average wages may be higher than is typical in the competitor's country.
- They do not have the innovations or inventions that their competitors have.
- They do not have the skill sets or organization their competitors have.
- They lack raw materials needed to make some product.

also announced a new $1 billion National Community Deployment Challenge to help boost the deployment of clean, advanced vehicles all over America:
To cities and towns all across the country, what we’re going to say is, if you make a commitment to buy more advanced vehicles for your community -- whether they run on electricity or biofuels or natural gas -- we’ll help you cut through the red tape and build fueling stations nearby. And we’ll offer tax breaks to families that buy these cars, companies that buy alternative fuel trucks like the ones that are made right here at Mount Holly. So we’re going to give communities across the country more of an incentive to make the shift to more energy-efficient cars.
I don't see anything that is stuck to electric car alone!
