re: Worlds largest chipmaker will move operations to Arizona

TSMC is basically acknowledging the inevitable -- that Taiwan will eventually get absorbed into China. I don't think it will happen militarily. Rather they will basically just take it like they did HK, with a long series of internal and external political moves that result in Taiwan "Agreeing" to become part of China.
I am gonna guess this takes something like 20 years. Or maybe 15. So TSMC has until about 2040 to get it's most advanced plants and people off the island. Fair enough. I am sure the engineers are happy to relocate to the US. And we are happy to have them here. And it brings billions in revenue and hundreds of thousands of jobs eventually.
Plus we secure access to the world's best chips for the foreseeable future.
What's not to like?

Why stop at 2016? Were we doing this stuff before 2016? I’m pretty sure we are doing stuff we never did before to get the manufacturers here.
And to be fair, the pandemic and the shutdown by China made a lot of companies much more interested in being in the US than in China controlled regions.

I had no idea this began under the Trump admin.
I've been thinking of voting 3rd party but this has me re-thinking my plan.

That shite has got to stop, I read recently that AOC’s net worth is up to like $26M already even though just a few years ago she was a bartender.

Yea? But I know more about canned cheese than you. I know where they get the can. I know where they get the tips. Hell, I even know where they keep the cows making the fake cheese. I also know where they hide all that cheddar.
How does that make you feel, motherfricker?

A few years ago she couldn't afford rent in DC.

It is absolutely ridiculous. Don’t care which side of the aisle they sit on.

Damn, had no idea Trump was the reason for all this until this thread. Looks like we are all voting for him.

Right. Didn’t Intel recently start the largest capital investment in Arizona history to build facilities to make chips, specifically in competition with this very Taiwanese company?

Because Im not going to argue with someone who knows jack about all we've had to done to ensure chips are built here, TSMC, ASML, NVIDIA and AMD will build chips here because we've made that possible, stuff we weren't doing 2016-2020.
Lol, right this is all thanks to the Biden administration and Biden. We should all vote for him now. Why even try to make this political? How about be thankful for some chip manufacturing increasing at home and at the same time we can focus on getting a better president in office?
