Perhaps we should be making computer chips here...
Because things are going so swimmingly right now.
Brandon supports Chinese control.
Maybe they already do, that’s why we are having supply chain problems with chips and all the scuttlebutt about tensions between China and the US over Taiwan is just so much fake news buffoonery.
Oh BS. Chips can be made anywhere. There would only be a temporary disruption.
Who would have thought that we’d get into a world war with China over computer chips?
I grew up thinking the next world war was going to be over middle east oil.
Chips are not like oil wells. A war/takeover would probably damage highly sensitive equipment, which couldnāt be replaced easily , supply chains for the chip manufacturing would also break, and they would immediately lose the human-intellectual capital to run the operations
Next March. Or perhaps April at the latest.
Biden will allow it to happen.
Afghanistan was just a warm up for the really bad stuff that is to come.
“Clarifying that the president who said otherwise āwas not announcing any change in our policy,ā a spokesperson reinforced U.S. commitment to the Taiwan Relations Act, a Carter-era treaty that eliminated the United Statesā commitment to defend Taiwan.”
Taiwan Relations Act us a law, not a treaty.
It was enacted in 1979 because Jimmy Carter quit the mutual defense treaty we had with Taiwan.
I believe Taiwan Semi is siting a huge foundry in Arizona, but how soon it will be on line is the question.
Taiwan should make everything in those factories easily transportable.
China invadesā¦..everything comes to Korea or US.
Let’s make Taiwan a US state.
Biden can appease China by giving them CA.
No, they won't. But they will have succeeded in subjugating a free Chinese people and further embolden to expand their empire using military force.
I would suggest TSMC do what Philips did in WW2...move the managerial and monetary assets to the US (Norelco was North American Philips Company)
If I were a Taiwanese chip mfr I’d be out of there by now.
Reminder: We used to manufacture those.
Chip manufacturing is a very intricate, highly automated process. There’s no slave labor hands needed to make them. There’s absolutely no reason we shouldn’t be making them right here in America...
