The worst part is that they might get such handouts. I don't understand how, given their mighty fortunes, they haven't achieved 99.9% automation to keep costs as low as in cheap labour countries. If anything I think the EU, US and UK should subsidise research in achieving near full automation. Sucks for low skilled labour but they’ve already been fucked when jobs were moved overseas.

Fair enough, everyone is entitled to lobby for their interests. What I take umbrage with is that they want to turn subsidies into handouts. It's beyond ironic to call for subsidies but then label oversight as "intervening". Subsidies are interventions. Without a government plan and oversight they are just legalized corruption.
