If you live in a demonic country that dictates what everybody else gets to do (and is forced to do) at gunpoint for your entire life, you come to believe that is the natural order of things

overcapacity is such a stupid concept.

especially when the same american officials turn around and talk about how the world needs to 1000x their production of renewables, EVs, etc as the only hope to climate change.

then they demand china stop when they're the only country that takes poo poo serious. of course there's "overcapacity" in the chinese automotive sector, they're planning on shutting down their entire ICE vehicle manufacturing industry within a decade.

Biden or whoever: This isn't a command economy, we can't order the production of clean baby formula/artillery shells/housing
Also Biden and whoever: We will set production quotas for literally the world economy.

We’ve made historic investments in rebuilding the country with these computer chips. I was just — I was just — had an — did a major event up in Syracuse, where the landmark preliminary agreement between my administration and Micron, a microchip manufacturer. We came up with $6.1 billion in fund- — funding this CHIPS program. We used to create 40 — we used to make 40 percent of them. We’re now down to zero — zero number.

We paired that — Micron — Micron came along and said, “Okay, if you’re going to come up with $6 billion, we’re going to come up with $125 billion,” to invest in New York state alone to build chip facilities right here in New York. The single-biggest investment ever made in the history of this state. Ever.

As was mentioned, it’s the size of — going to be the size of 40 football fields — 40 — big enough to fit four Carrier Domes inside and still have space leftover.

Today, I’m pleased to announce we’re building on that commitment with a landmark preliminary agreement between my administration and Micron, a major chip manufacturer, which is building these fabs here in Upstate New York: $6.1 billion in chips funding paired with $125 billion from Micron to build these facilities here in New York and near Micron headquarters in Idaho.

So far from — not far from here, in Clay, New York, it’s going to help build two to four manufacturing facilities planned by Micron’s mega-labs [mega-fabs].

In Boise, Ohio [Idaho], it’s going to help build new high-volume manufacturing fabs as well.

These new — brand new facilities are going to produce the most sophisticated, powerful, leading-edge memory chips in the entire world. Each one has — has trillions — not billions, not millions — trillions of tiny features, each 4,000 [40,000] times thinner than a single hair on your head. And I’ve got some very thin hair on my head. (Laughter.)

They require manufacturing precision down to the size of an atom. They posse- — they process enormous amounts of information at lightning speed. And they’re critical to the emerging technology that will power tomorrow’s economy, like artificial intelligence and advanced communications. They’ll make everyday things faster, lighter, smaller, and more reliable. And it’s about time.

Folks, where is it written — when I said we were going to have the lo- — become the manufacturing capital of the world again when I got elected, they looked at me, some of my friends, and said, “You’re crazy.” Well, where the he- — where the heck is it written — (laughter) — that American manufacturing can- — will not be the capital of the world again? It’s going to be.

And today, I’m pleased to announce four new hub programs. One hub in Detroit and Lansing, Michigan, folks will make electric cars. Another hub in Philadelphia, one in Milwaukee will train workers that’ll replace every — every poisonous lead pipe in America within the decade. And here in Syracuse — the Syracuse region, a new hub is going to train semiconductor workers for the future. (Applause.)

I ignited a ma- — it ignited a manufacturing boom, a clean-energy boom, a semiconductor boom nationwide. And it’s clear we have the strongest economy in the world, and that’s a fact.

went to my room, listened to some music, read a little, played some video games. walked back into the living room sure it was done and it had been 13 minutes.

There's nothing stopping chinese factories from producing high grade components, they surely must already do this for important applications at home (nuclear/medical/etc), but US brands looking to cut costs by essentially dropshipping detritus with their label on it aren't paying for quality.

In nuclear, the size of the investment they are making is extremely impressive, but they lack technical knowledge in some key areas. I’m confident they will leapfrog the US in short time tho
