A Silicon Valley tech giant is set to announce an investment of $20 billion for a chip factory in Columbus, Ohio, a locale strong on manufacturing with data centers for Google, Amazon, and Facebook.
Intel's semiconductor factory would employ 3,000 workers in Licking County, in addition to thousands of construction workers and Intel suppliers locating to the area, a source told The Columbus Dispatch.

..but at least a lot of their chips are made in the USA.
Intel, Google, Amazon, and Facebook!@@ Going to be the best voter fraud team ever assembled!
Geeze can’t you at least be happy for the people of Ohio,? Isn’t it better they be made here as opposed to China?
This is going to be good for the city of Columbus and the Buckeye State in general. I would think/hope a portion of the hiring would be from that area.
I live in California now, but I have good feelings for the City of Columbus, Ohio because that’s where I went to college back in the 70’s. Some of the most enjoyable years of my otherwise dull life.
They still need to sell potato chips with lame computer pun inspired names.
Blue Corn of Crunch, Multi-Graining, Fire Pepper Wall come to mind.
Ohio is a Moonbat blue state. I served several years as a kid (my father was in the military) and a couple of years in the later 90s.
My bride was from Ohio and we both could not wait to get out of that state.
“Intel looking to import its moonbat voters from blue states into Ohio.”
That’s one way to look at it.
I choose to look at it differently, this is an excellent investment for the state of Ohio. When its up and running, our supply chain just got shortened.
Besides woke ideology is everywhere, not just on the West Coast, so Ohioans will have to fight that battle anyway.
Way to go Ohio.
3000 workers looking for a job in Columbus? Since Amazon flooded Central Ohio, everyone who wants a job is working.
Some companies are turning away orders because of no workers.
Plus - you cannot find a house for sale in the Columbus area.
If it’s good for the US I doubt the Biden administration will let this happen.
It seems incongruous to demand companies build stuff in the USA and then trash them for actually doing it. Chips are gonna get made someplace.
I drove thru there a few weeks ago on my way to Cleveland. There’s enough farmland outside the 270 loop to build all the houses needed.
Sad but most likely true. I am reminded of those 10K plus workers he made jobless by shutting down the Keystone Oil Pipeline last year. A strange man, that Biden.
Garden of Eatin’ Red hot Blue Chips are delicious!
Maybe they come from that same manufacturer.
Biden and his his handlers want to destroy the middle class. When there are just the elites in their walled cities and private islands and the serfs in their lawless dirty cities, Dem leaders will be happy.
Don’t know how that is relevant. My point is that this will help the people of Ohio
This is a good thing. Somebody finally realized that having the vast majority of the world’s computer chips made within a stone’s throw of China or in China itself wasn’t very smart. I don’t know why some here are complaining, if we’re going to survive as a nation we have to actually manufacture something here. A nation of nothing but service workers can’t survive.
