    I thought Trump solved that with his tariffs, but I guess not.

    It bears repeating: Trump's tariffs lost us 62,000 jobs or job opportunities. $19 billion in investment opportunities have been lost and 10.5 GW of clean energy have not been installed. In fact, tariffs on solar cells and modules are costing Americans more than $10.5 million per day in unrealized economic activity.Dec 6, 2019

    So you support China dumping (legal term) crap solar panels into the US market and bankrupting US businesses?

    Why are American companies buying them? The same thing happened to our steel industry and tech industry. Could be cheaper manufacturing’s means higher profits?

    That's the problem with putting tariffs on things to far down the chain.
    You lose more jobs than you gain.

    China subsidized its companies so they could dump (legal term) solar panels on the use market at very low prices. It bankrupted US solar panel companies.

    People bought them because they were cheaper. But they were crap. Most had to be replaced inside of 3 years.

    You are not addressing my point. Why? Tariffs have nothing to do with what I said. In fact tariffs are legitimate to combat dumping (legal term).
