Enough will want to remain in the USAs shadow as a protectorate.

Guam is beautiful.

PING, Wow, this is great analysis of a big and hugely important chip maker in Taiwan who’s been flying below the radar. OEM supplier to Apple, the F-35 aircraft, and a lot more.

Now I begin to see why Xi Jingping the Covid King is so anxious to capture Taiwan. Nice work, sunkenciv.

They best have hundreds or thousands of missiles to fire if the CCP attacks.

I’m confused. The picture says Guam is 1,800 miles from the Chinese mainland, but the caption says it’s 2,887 miles. They both can’t be correct.

"The U.S. was the birthplace of advanced silicon, but for decades now, it’s been losing market share to Asia, where 79% of the world’s chip production happened in 2020, according to industry association SEMI. It calculated the U.S. was responsible for 12% of worldwide chip manufacturing last year, down from 37% in 1990."

Unfortunately I am likely to be in his district after redistributing.
