What is going to fix this chip shortage? Will it happen in our lifetime?

Building chip foundries outside the control of APAC countries and within the reach of China threatening invasion.

That's what.

I've read a number of articles in the last few months that Texas will be the home of somewhere between 3-5 major chip boundaries in the next 2-3 years, which is about the time it takes to build a world-class chip manufacturing facility.

As I see it, the problem is the US Government has to make a concerted effort to get the job done here in the US and eliminate China from controlling the worlds mid to high end chip supply chain.

In short, there's gonna be some short term pain incurred by us US Consumers to get past this.
