https://twitter.com/KimDotcom/status/1619280604717264896A leaked memo from US Air Force General Mike Minichan to Air Force commanders predicts a war with China in 2025. General Minichan ordered his subordinates to prepare a report by the end of February on measures to prepare for hostilities with China. The US is running out of time.

Just move the semiconductor factories to the US and let China do whatever the fuck it wants with Taiwan. Problem solved.

No one wants to spend luxury goods money on their luxury electronics, which is what would have to happen if such factories were built in places that have to pay their employees more than a dollar an hour. Everyone just has to have the newest iPhone every single year, and anything less is entirely unacceptable.

Foundries are not labor intensive at all compared to the other steps in the manufacturing process of electronics.
Most of the cost is building the foundry.
The idea that if they paid workers more they'd have to increase prices is a meme perpetuated by these same companies to justify slave labor to just get that smallest fraction more of profit. Apple has some of the highest profit margins in the industry so it's ironic you mention them.

Here's a more reliable source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2023/01/27/us-general-minihan-china-war-2025/
> U.S. general warns troops that war with China is possible in two years
> Gen. Michael A. Minichan, who oversees the Air Force’s fleet of transport and refueling aircraft, cited the 2024 presidential elections in Taiwan and the United States as part of his rationale
> China could be at war with the United States two years from now, a top Air Force general predicted in a bombastic and unusual memo to troops under his command, asserting a shorter timeline before potential conflict than other senior U.S. defense officials.
