Indiana is a great place to be FROM...
Seriously though, it is hot in the summer, cold in the winter, and wet most of the year. Land is inexpensive, and there are several major universities in the general area from which to recruit talent. Plenty of blue collar workers and white collar engineers/managers. Lateral movement across midwestern states in search of better jobs is common. Easy highway and railway transport access for shipping materials and finished goods. Tornadoes are a significant issue, but there are no other major environmental issues to worry about.
It is a good area to build.
Our options are old piece of shit #1 and old piece of shit #2.
Really don't see how China can make thing worse than we already have made ourselves.

It's not the individuals throwing away $70 that matter. It's MBS or Elon or Vlad throwing in a $ Billion. They are the ones hoping for a return on their investment from the POTUS.
Sure, the company behind the stock is worthless. But that is not what people are investing in.
They are trying to buy favors with Donald Trump. If he loses the election, those favors may not be worth anything. If he wins, he may just laugh at anyone trying to call in a favor.

A few quick executions of the companies top executives should motivate immediate change by their successors.
weeks? fighting? WTF are you on?
The Taiwan artillery and missile batteries are not designed for combat. They are a Mutually Assured Destruction retaliation system.
Attack=>trigger failsafe=>retaliation strikes. Millions dead. Cities reduced to rubble. One and done.
There is no fighting. Taiwan is too out matched to fight. They posture and bluff "defending their territory" with a coast guard patrol and a few jets, but they really only have one move: a massively destructive retaliatory strike.
No. The Matrix told a story, from start to finish.
Before, engineers had an edge against business graduates because of their technical expertise, but now M.B.A.s can use AI to compete in that zone
hahahaha.
Oh, wait. You're serious. Let me laugh even harder.
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
I call bullshit.
Prove it. In court. Make headlines and collect your millions.

May you reach your final destination as soon as possible!
It is currently part of the PRC, because the PRC is the only legitimate government of all of China, and that includes Taiwan.
Not according to the people who live in/are from Taiwan.
Everything else is just you rationalizing away their rights.
China cannot "take" Taiwan.
Taiwan has the type of artillery emplacements that Switzerland used to have: big guns in bunkers built into the bedrock. Switzerland abandoned them because modern missiles can penetrate deep enough to destroy them. In taiwan, they still rely on them. Any strike capable of destroying them would leave little of Taiwan left to capture.
The artillery (and missile) batteries are capable of shooting up to ~200 miles across a ~100 mile straight. That means anything up to 100 miles inland is a target. There are several major ports and cities in that range. All of which would be leveled in a retaliatory strike if China invaded -unless China launched a massive pre-emptive strike and simply destroyed Taiwan.
Industry leaders that are conducting basic research should be developing their own manufacturing equipment to produce chips using those revolutionary processes/scales that are supposed to be a major component of being industry leaders.
That they're buying machines for their flagship products indicates that they're no longer the leaders they used to be.
What? You clearly have no clue how industry works.
ASML is the company doing the research on revolutionary production methods and scales -they make the equipment for ALL the companies that produce chips. Nobody (successfully) rolls their own...
Intel designs chips. They are buying equipment from ASML to produce the chips they design.
It would be far outside Intel's area of expertise to try to design machinery to produce chips.
