      so… how much did does the us government give its auto industry?

      They gave us auto companies 81 billion between 2008 and 2014, and continue to subsidize the industry to this day.

        BYD recieved 3.7 billion between 2018-2022 2.2 billion in 2022 alone.

        Ford recieved under 500 million in 2022 but did recieve 1.7 billion in 2023.

        Ford motor apparently has recieved 7.7 billion in subsidies since the year 2000. Usually from states rather than fedrally.
