They’ll need the money to take on the Chicoms

Thanks plugs.

TSMC has the most advanced fab in the world.
Apple and Qualcomm are now their prime customers

I think the only thing keeping China from invading Taiwan is the fear they have hidden nuclear capability.

Which is quite possible, given their tech background and that we once stored Nukes there.

The U.S., for example, only accounts for 12% of the world’s chip manufacturing, down from 37% in 1990.

Interesting that the date for the comparison starts right after Reagan era that encouraged business through his fiscal policies. Now we once again see a Democrat administration seeking punitive tax increases on business because voters are economically illiterate. Who do these Liberals think actually pay the taxes: the consumer who buys the business products or the company who pays the tax? Biden promises to increase both personal and corporate taxes and the Left Lemming all applaud. Personally, I think I can spend my money better than Biden can.

The price of chip technology compared to the processing power of a chip has plummeted for decades. If the price of a chip increases 20% due to material cost, and then you factor in the increase in processing power from a year ago, is it a wash?

We found generic chips nearly as good as Lays. But we really like Zaps Cajun Crawgators. Oh, wrong chips?

Make them here. What a novel concept.

This will just give Beijing Biden another excuse to kowtow to his Chicomm masters.
