- bongodongobob 1y agoIf you're going to subsidize anything why wouldn't it be R&D
- bgnn 1y agoThere's nothing inherently wrong with it. Though it creates a competitive advantage and forces other countries to do the same, of not more. Everyone starts pointing fingers at each other and imposing tariff at the end. Plus this puts pressure on manufacturing, as they will not be able to compete. So yeah, as a tool to boost knowledge economy it works but is it objectively a good thing to do I don't know.
- aaronblohowiak 1y agowhy wouldn't r&d count as an expense? why do amortization schedules constitute a subsidy?
- Spivak 1y agoOur glorious R&D subsidies, their savage market manipulation.
- trollbridge 1y agoIt’s not a subsidy. They just are letting people immediately expense R&D instead of requiring it spread over 5 years.
