One of the main supporters for this was the UAW. Real rich people don't care about this, if this hadn't passed they wouldve just sold there shares in American auto companies and invested in Chinese companies, or moved manufacturing to China for higher subsidies, lower labor costs and even bigger profits, or use that as a threat to lower wages here. Under globalism capital is free to move to wherever there is the most profit.
This isn't a rich vs poor situation, it's a worker vs consumer situation.
