Yellen Wants Level Playing Field [semi-satire]

Noting that Tesla has discontinued its efforts to produce a low cost electric vehicle (EV) because it can't get its costs down as low as its Chinese competitors, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen urged that "we look into leveling the playing field. Right now China has the advantage of lower labor costs. The captive Uyghurs are virtually slaves working for food and lodging. We currently have no counterpart. But we could pull ahead if we could turn a sufficient number of our domestic enemies of democracy into prison laborers and use them to help lower the cost of producing EVs in the United States."

"The math would be on our side," Yellen calculated. "Their are only eleven million Uyghur slave laborers. Based on the number of people who voted for Donald Trump in 2020, we have 70 million potential prison laborers at our disposal. The success of the prosecutions of the January 6 criminals shows how we could snare millions more. Thousands of election deniers illegally trod on government property on January 6, 2021. For each one of these there are thousands more who also claim that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. We have them on videos of Trump rallies cheering his continuing accusations. They are accessories aiding and abetting his repeated effort to topple President Biden's government by making false allegations."

"Since the victim of these crimes is the federal government all the perps should be tried in Washington DC where juries untainted by treasonous ideas will routinely convict them," Yellen suggested. "They could be leased out to our domestic EV manufacturers who would only have to feed and house them for as long as it takes to get production costs below those of our Chinese competition. The President's dream of an all-electric transportation system would become economically viable. Greenhouse gases would be eliminated, the global climate would be stabilized, and dangerous enemies would be incarcerated. It's a win-win-win option."

Was Janet tripping on her mushrooms when she said this? Does she want Trump’s Chinese tariffs?

“ The captive Uyghurs are virtually slaves working for food and lodging”

But the child labor in Africa for libtard lithium is fine and dandy not a problem

It’s obvious to normal people that our government is run by total idiots with absolutely no common sense or business sense.

We need a massive purge.

If only the Chinese would raise their prices and use forced child labor so Janet would be happy
