We’re talking about China subsidizing goods that it sells in another country. This is bread and butter “free market” behavior. Literally every company in the world does this one way or another.

No, that is not the free market at work at all. I agree it happens however. We simply don't live in a 100% free market world.

“subsidising” and “free market” are antonyms we learn in 3rd grade language arts class :)

  • How about “loss leader”? Ever use napkins at a diner? Buy Costco chicken? I think you are repeating things you were taught but they aren’t true
