    Thoughts?

    Personally, I believe (and this goes for everything) we cannot let perfect be the enemy of good. While there are clearly some shortfalls in terms of the size of plants, the time it takes to construct them, the volume they can produce and the overall costs of the chips, I think it’s a good start.

    Just having the capability outside of East Asia is a good thing - it is a powder keg over there. Hopefully the fact it has bipartisan support in the US means it has a solid foundation to improve upon.
