"Also, chip shortages are ending fast" Working in robotics, everyone is desperate to buy chips. Chip lead times are still extremely long and there is no indication when the semiconductor industry will be returning to normal. Not sure where you are getting this perspective? China absolutely subsidizes their tech industry, so a healthy free market economy is not reality. If the U.S. is going to spend money on anything, home-grown semiconductors is a great option. Maybe there is valid criticism for some of the semiconductor companies for off-shoring and transferring knowledge and manufacturing to 3rd parties. But creating high skilled jobs for U.S. engineers and domestic manufacturing would be very beneficial to the U.S.
