Funny story. I work as a safety consultant so I'm between various clients and one client was essentially a solar panel making company.

They couldn't get enough investors so they had to completely change the stuff they were making to stay afloat.

That was two years ago. I don't think they have the capacity to go back to being a solar panel making company despite the fact that it'd be far more sustainable for them once the bite from these tariffs is truly felt.

Yeah but China dumps below cost solar panels on the market to drive out any foreign competition before it can begin.

Using a tariff to adjust the price of Chinese solar panels to their actual price is probably one of the only actual justifiable reasons.

Hey I'll believe that. I'm no businessman. Just a safety guy.

Maybe they would be able to if they were better at business.

Had a real bleak discussion with a friend on discord a few days back about the state of the world. Stuff like desalination facilities are "too expensive" "too hard to produce" but small scale nuclear power plants to power generative AI facilities so we can make more fake porn and shitposts and summarize emails is cool.
