Our auto industry is dependent on China.
The auto industry in the USA became dependent on Chinese integrated circuit chips. That is so wrong on many levels.
The situation is crippling the industry, damaging the US economy, and maybe even placing us at risk when it comes to military strategy. It seems like we could ramp up IC chip production domestically. |
Everything is dependent on China.

Military Strategy? Which country sells its best STEM slots to a potential opponent?

Which country has the USA dependent but suddenly can't provide ? I hope our military vehicles are not designed with these chips. Like the soviet insistence on using vacuum tubes for decade, rather than switch to USA technology of transistors. |
We made our own silicon transistors. Tubes are fine when/where appropriate.

Now we're talkin'.
https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/c...141923102.html It shouldn't be like the new Toyota ignition keys; the ones that require a monthly subscription payment in order to start your car, at least not in our army tanks. |

Private enterprise has the chips made where the costs are lowest for the highest profit. It would take the government getting involved to bring the industry back here to be competitive in producing our own chips. Private enterprise isn't interested in the national good. Private enterprise doesn't want the government horning in on their business (and profits). |
