EPA pushed chip makers off shore.

Oh BS. The did it to scrap every last ounce of profit. The off shored to save pennies on the dollar at the expense of US security, US workers and self reliance. They are all traitors and deserve the noose...

Anyone else struck by the timing...

CoupFlu is on its last legs, scamdemic wise, not we have a convenient chip shortage.

The only question I have is whether or not our Deep State is in on this with the ChiComs.

"The off shored to save pennies on the dollar at the expense of US security, US workers and self reliance."

Yup.

Reduce expenses. It began in the early 70's with 'back-end' work, final test and assembly/packaging, low-tech stuff.

I just found out yesterday that most gas stations here in northern Colorado Springs are out of gas.

I downloaded “GasBuddy” to see if it would locate stations that have gas but no such luck. It gives the price the stations would charge if they had gas.

Anyone know an app or other method to determine which stations are pumping gas near you?

Oh, and ‘Thank you Obama!”.

What do they say why they're out of gas?
