Well TSMC has already built a fab here in the states. Although, I'm pretty sure it isn't responsible for the bulk of their production. (yet).
TSMC already has an open and operating fab in Arizona. Try to keep up,
Trump hasn't even been in office for a month yet, Biden tried to get TSMC to move to the US with the CHIPS act. Harris campaigned on bringing chip manufacturing to the US. This isn't some bipartisan or new idea of trump's.
Well, he SAID it would be used to help pay down the national debt. Whether he does that or not is still up for debate. If he follows through with what he says, good. If he doesn't, bad.
Whether we like it or not, Trump is president for the next 4 years and hoping he runs our country into the ground to justify one's own opinion needs to stop. It's exhausting.
So did Bush, Obama and Biden. We have had bipartisan ignorance of the debt for 3 decades now. What's your point?
This must mean that you righties are always right and we "libtards are "always wrong". But by any definition of standard, that's pretty self involved and sanctimonious.
We can blame both Biden and Trump for the giant 5+ trillion covid stimulus, near zero interest rates, high deficits unrelated to covid, and easy money QE policies that caused inflation to spike.
You claimed these are China tariffs. That is false. These are not China tariffs as they are targeted at Taiwan's semiconductor industry.
you are misinterpreting what I'm saying. This isn't a tax on the TSMC chips as they go to a third party to be assembled and then the assembled product is taxed when entering into the US. The country it is assembled in as a final product is what they consider the country of origin and, thus, the tax rate of the Tariff. TSMC makes the chips, they aren't making fully assebled 5090's. Very little of what TSMC makes is going to be taxed directly with Tiawan as the country of origin.
So I work with apprentices in my union. The amount of people who we have to force to "unlearn" common core math so they can do basic functions like read a measuring tape or understand fractions is absurd. Whatever the DoE is doing is bad. At the very least, someone needs to take a serious look at it. It's like people with useless college degrees made a program based on what people need to learn in the work place without actually consulting people who work in said places. I'm in the finsihers union (local 526), but all the union halls are having this problem. None of the people coming out of highschool have any concept of how tools work or how to read numbers properly. This isn't a Biden problem, they first started documenting this problem about 7 years ago as most unions decided to extend their apprenticeship programs from 3 years to 4 years. The first year is basically just a "re-education class" for math used on job sites and how to use tools. "unlearning" the common core math from kids is really hard. they start talking about squares and using 7's and I'm just sitting there, it's ****ing 3X5, it's 15. stop trying to do your common core BS.
Brain rot runs deep in America, your efforts are futile.
Of course we have to blame Trump, after all he is the one that ignored the virus when he could have taken the right precautions about it instead of calling it a "Democrats hoax" and wasting precious time in saving people's lives.
No sh!t? But "plan B" is to rollover and take the stupidity prima facia I owe it to myself not to let that happen, for my own mental health.
Now do you see what I mean by "self aggrandizing", "condescending", "sanctimonius", and just plain knowing it all?
I'm going to take this at face value. I know how do all of what you're talking. However, most of it is self taught. So, square, cubic volume, the inverse square law, are all within my grasp. I ca even use a tape measure, a micrometer, and a square, but only in "dire emergencies". I tend to forget algebra as soon as I walk out of the classroom. But then again 9 + x =12, doesn't have to be solved algebraically. (no head scratching involved).
