I think there's room in the market for a back to basics car company that takes out all this bs, goes back to crank windows and all that crap and sells new vehicles for an affordable cost with a good warranty.

It would probably crush today.

There are quality affordable Chinese EV’s that the USA government has blocked from being sold there. The USA is a corporate monopoly.

No, that's just capitalism. Corporations gain large profits, and find that they can spend some of their profit on politics to gain larger profits. It's called the political economy and every capitalist economy has had one. Adam Smith described it, it's not new.
