      EU should impose 100% taxes on TSMC because it receives multi-billion dollar subsidies from US and German government to build local factories. Ah sorry, tjese are the good guys. China is the bad guy because it subsidises its car indusry.

        Why build a chip plant (which needs water) in a desert? Put it near the Great Lakes

These are largely reliant on chips manufactured by TSMC and heavy tariffs on those products would be illogical as they would increase costs dramatically for Chinese Smartphone and tablet manufacturers

            Chip Made in America only to get exported to China or Asia again for assembly. Unless they're also making in America, that's kinda a lot of energy waste

              I hope this will end of SoC crysis low ends phones, tired of UNISOC T and Mediatek G series again and again.

The electronics market is more than just smartphones or computers. Even a simple diode has to go through an embedded process. China gets many binning stuff locally.

                  TechDevil, 17 hours agoCompletely reliant? That's an overestimate stuff Well, all the processors they use in their high end pbones are Qualcomm and Mediatek processors which manufactured by TSMC apart from Huawei. How can they make flagship phones and even most midrangers without these. Please do explain

                    6.6B dollars for microchip production while there are people starving everywhere and the economy is collapsing? Shame on you!

                                  usa is again getting back row knowledge and bringing into their soil.
                                  before it was man power, now technologies.
                                  soon, they'll impose things on row and trying show they care about row.
