"Free market" implies regulators aren't picking winners and losers etc. If China subsidizes their export industry to make manufacturing in other countries uncompetitive then it's already not a free market.

Ideally what you would want is to get China to stop doing that, but now propose a mechanism to get them to.

Have you seen Polestar's pricing? They're very much positioned as the premium EV option and their pricing is pretty much the opposite of dumping.

You make it sound like the US doesn't massively subsidise entire markets and then try to force other countries to accept these market distortions.
