      chinese companies are notorious for stealing IP

      American companies sell the ip to China in exchange for access to capital and labor, then claim they’ve been robbed when the Chinese firms innovate and expand on the patents they’ve acquired.

      The end result is a car company that produces better vehicles than anything an American or Japanese or German company can manage.

      Curiously, these superior vehicles are “stolen” while the Teslas keep exploding under home grown technology.
