Nobody is going back and forth and EVs are rolling out every day. It's not environmentally friendly to scrap 200+ million cars and replace them with EVs either. Hydrogen cars are green tech just as much as BEVs especially if someone lives somewhere where their power comes from coal or gas plant. The knowledge they learn from testing hydrogen vehicles has the potential of being used in other industries as well. Like what is the problem with more knowledge for the human race?
I tend to agree but also see the other side of it in the corporation that I work for. There are a lot of stupid tasks that need to be done that are best handled by someone in middle management as it doesn't take the managed employees away from the actual work and is something that needs to be done even if it outside the scope of our actual work.
Where I am, it's selfishness, backstabbing, and politics that are the biggest hinderence from middle managers. Without being specific, you might have someone proposing an idea that, when implemented, will sound good on paper and make them look good while actually causing our work to be completed more slowly. Additionally, you have other people who have the answers to specific problems we face as employees, but they don't want to share it because they won't get credit and a promotion for it.
Coincidentally, my UPS packages have all been delayed over the last two weeks. One was supposedly delayed from CA to OR because of "weather" which is odd as it has been sun and mostly mild temps over the last week. Another had it's tracking showing "we don't have the package yet" right up until the morning that it was delivered.
That's exactly what happened to companies like Red Lobster and Circuit City.
I'm guessing /u/friend_of_satan lives in a very hot and arid climate.
Why do you care? I never understand this argument as if companies can only work on one thing at a time. Hydrogen does have benefits over pure BEV and studying different designs can only increase industry knowledge and the number of solutions available even if they don't ultimately succeed in the end. Putting all your eggs in one basket is never a good idea.
The electric Canoo models look a million times better. 
These gas ones are what you get when a defense contractor gets to build highway vehicles. I'm pretty sure these things are well into the 6 figures per vehicle which seems pretty excessive for what it is.
I once got a cup full of dlihydrogen monoxide when using one of these machines. Let me tell you that it was an experience...
Because you implied that he deserved to get assaulted and thrown to the ground for "talking back" and "not following instructions." You don't see the parallels between this and a husband assaulting and throwing to the ground their wife for talking back and not following instructions? What makes this okay simply because it's being conducted by a person who took a 6 week training course and gets to wear a badge on their chest?
Why would a guy in a McLaren, who already gave you his ID, raise suspicions that he might be trying to harm you by simply rolling his window up? This cop mentality that everyone is seconds away from ambushing them like they're in Fallujah circa 2002 is absurd and drives a lot of this police brutality and overreaction. Don't forget that these are paid professional government employees. It's not the citizen's job to coddle police and play into their own personal paranoia and delusions just to avoid getting beaten or shot.
Sounds a lot like an abusive husband claiming that he wouldn't have to beat his wife if she hadn't burned their dinner.
That's a hilarious take as they're the largest polluter in the world and have terrible environmental regulations. They're doing it to capture and control the market. How does dumping a bunch of cheap, disposable cars that they've shipped halfway across the world after building reduce pollution exactly?

Because China's only apply to Chinese vehicles while the US's apply to everyone in the industry including foreign brands. This increases competition. China's goal is to reduce competition by putting competitors out of business so that they can recoup their investment by jacking up the prices once there is nobody left to stand in their way.
The subsidies they're paying are completely unsustainable and is just a race to the bottom for both countries.
Outside of Tesla, the EV market in the US is already comprised of mostly foreign brands. These concerns aren't about protecting the few American automakers (GM, Ford, Tesla) left, it's about protecting the market for everyone, protecting all those union jobs, and preventing a bunch of companies going out of business because they can't compete against unsustainable Chinese subsidies.
I mean technically orphans are homeless.
Yeah both these companies have been run into the ground in my opinion. They're just coasting on inertia at this point.
There's no such thing as a free market unless you're talking about places like Somolia where there is no government.
