2020-05-15 | Taiwan's TSMC to build Arizona chip plant as U.S.-China tech rivalry escalates - Reuters

'While huge in terms of foreign investment in the United States, the plan is small by TSMC’s standards. '

'U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said chips from the new TSMC plant will power everything from artificial intelligence to 5G base stations to F-35 fighter jets. '

'TSMC manufactures the bulk of its chips in Taiwan and has older chip facilities in China and Washington state. '

'(Reuters) - Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (2330.TW), the biggest contract chipmaker, said it plans to build a $12 billion factory in Arizona in an apparent win for the Trump administration’s efforts to wrestle global tech supply chains back from China. '

'While Intel has major manufacturing operations in the United States, it supplies only its own chips rather than making them for outside customers. '

TSMC is already the world leader semiconductor fabricator and almost a monopoly.

This is our government's way to bring sensitive technology (military) back on shore.

This is a good start, but eventually America needs to be the one creating these chips with AMERICANS and no more foreign H1/2B’s or production.

Americans have the ability and capability to create the worlds leading tech and to make/manufacture it all here with Americans only.
