We love exporting all our manufacturing overseas to save a few dollars
Did we export this company or are we simply importing their goods? It seems that you want Taiwan to export its manufacturing here.
I do agree that we need to explore vital chip manufacturing domestically (or at least regionally, possibly in Mexico), but you frame it very poorly. This is something we are taking from them and to do so, we will need to invest billions (or have "them" do it, like is being done outside of Austin right now).

This is underway as quickly as possible right now. It takes quite a bit to stand up one of these operations.
Garmin’s manufacturing is in Taiwan. The world is about to find out how many things have a Garmin GPS in them.

yes, the US just can’t possibly match Taiwan’s chip manufacturing capabilities 
The reason it’s done overseas is to save money.
It just seems really naive for us to continue as if nothing is wrong when China could swoop in and take that country and our entire tech dependent economy would grind to a halt. It is a serious national security threat. I don’t care what administration does it but micro chip production needs to be at least partially done here so we could ramp up production at home if China goes wild over there.
