Seems like we’ve been in this shortage for two plus years now. Why haven’t we caught up?

You would think this would be a bit of a wakeup call for domestic production of raw materials, feedstocks, and things like chips. But no, we'll just keep farming out our supplies because we need to keep the countries that hate us happy and give them leverage because they pay off our political class.

Apparently they cancelled their chip orders when COVID hit, and the fabs shifted production to other products and other clients.

Or at least tell engineering to tweak the design to not need that part. If your whole design hinges on one specific part from one specific location and one specific seller it is a dumb design.
