you can say the same about every recent US war, and add one 0 to the sum.

Or, more controversially, say EU green deal which decimated EU car industry and lost/will lose us few millions of jobs. Losses up to a trillion and nothing to show for that

I know it may be a radical view, but less cars is always a good thing. Not too happy about the job losses, though.
The job losses don't have to happen and it's a failure of the government in allowing it happen. There is always a job to be done if people are willing to work, there are always people willing to do certain types of work.
Nah they are just replaced by chinese cars, people won't drive less or buy less cars just because EU became noncompetitive. We just lost big part of economy to somebody else.
