This is really good news. There are national security implications by not encouraging this as well

Phones are going to cost a whole fucking lot, with those US salaries.

Good. It's about time we pay what these devices are actually worth. If we can't have something without literal slave labor, we shouldn't have it at all.

How's about we process our own rare earth minerals? That seems significantly more important than whether or not we're buying our chips from Taiwan.

I really hope this takes off.
