The Biden administration has pledged to provide up to $6.6 billion so that a Taiwanese semiconductor giant can expand the facilities it is already building in Arizona and better ensure that the most-advanced microchips are produced domestically for the first time.
Cool, but what’s the point if they continue to try and avoid having Americans involved in the building? (or just continue to treat them like shit)

That’s an interesting conspiracy theory you are proposing. Any more proof of TSMC intentionally trying to force Americans out of employment at their US based locations?
Not a conspiracy, they flat out say Americans aren’t qualified or skilled enough.

I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact the Republicans keep killing education. Gotta keep em dumb so they fall for the propaganda and keep voting against their best interests.
It’s not that they aren’t educated enough it’s they either don’t want to deal with America’s labor unions, different work ethics or just don’t want to change culture.
But education cuts are going to be a big issue eventually
