  • I don’t get the goal here. It’s not just that existing fabs are in Taiwan, I thought it was the knowledge was as well.

    I was under the impression that we’d built a couple of fabs here and they’re not productive due to a knowledge deficit. Maybe I’m uninformed.

    It seems, to my uninformed self, that if we impose tariffs we’d be strengthening Taiwan/China relations. Wouldn’t China still serve as a middle man?

    I don’t see us manufacturing when the dollar is so high relative to foreign currency; add in the lack of knowledge and facilities and I’m not sure what you get.






  • “Everyone is a psychopath like me therefore anything virtuous is disingenuous.”

    I kind of think a certain amount of money makes you… Inhuman for a lack of a better word. Not only not playing the same game as the rest of us, but so far removed that they don’t remember the rules.

    Like we’re all a part of something together, but when you get to a certain point of wealth (or more likely in order to get to a certain point of wealth) the rest of humanity are just things that give you wealth and not beings such as yourself.
