well there is a buying market for solar, that's a fact. If the market is dominated by cheap shit from China, my question was; what is the solution to that so that American solar companies can profit from the market that exists? I didn't ask about why people on the grid arn't buying solar. I asked what American solar companies have to do to compete in the market that is there now. I guess the answer is don't start a solar company because cheap chinese shit will ruin your plan. That's unacceptable, especially since this same concept goes across the board into all American industry now. So what needs to happen so Americans can start a company in America and profit? It's a good question!
it is a good question and you hit the nail on the head, Can A company start a solar company and be profitable in america?
again I dont know enough about the ins and outs of this specific industry to state specifics but as you mentioned all industries we can start there.
Labor is much cheaper in china than the US, regulations(safety, pay, benefits, enviromental, financial etc.) also give china a upper hand.
the answer is the same answer for what I said about private use of solar. Make it cheaper to produce these things here and companies will do so.
Companies care about their bottom line, if you show them that producing here will positively impact their bottom line they will produce here.
Right now due to the factors I mentioned and many others make it cheaper to produce in other countries.
