Trump to impose 25% to 100% tariffs on Taiwan-made chips, impacting TSMC
-
What a goddamn dumb fuck
-
By Taiwanese law, TSMC isn't allowed to move cutting edge processes to its US plant. The overseas operations have to be at least one gen behind.
From a strategic point of view, it makes sense for the Taiwan government to do this. They don't want the US to suck them dry then cut a deal with the mainland.

I mean, it's economic blackmail: we won't build the good shit anywhere else, so if you don't protect us, you get nothing.
Effective, but only if you're dealing with someone who is rational, and, well, have you seen the brain-worm oligarchs in charge of the US lately?

I did mine a couple months ago because I anticipated this happening.

Oh he did, there were supposed to be 500% tariffs ^/s^

Peace in our time, what a great deal maker!

Wasn't this the same justification that America used to send factory jobs overseas? I feel repeating verbatim what the US has stated is the ultimate sign of respect.
