Not sure why Biden didn’t put any terms and conditions on giving away all this money 💰?
The US and Europe has become acutely aware that too much semi-conductor manufacturing has been outsourced to China and other Asian nations and they’re trying to build some back domestically. So that’s the geopolitical reason for it.

That’s the justification. Don’t you know what kind of people gets into high governmental positions?
Making some friends rich was the reason.
Still, this sucks huge donkey balls, a lot of very smart and very knowledgeable people, maybe more valuable than a 100 (ok, maybe 10, or maybe 5, it’s a rhetorical device) copies of me, work in such inefficient structures, while there could have been a dozen TSMCs over the world with their competencies.

Lol that’s $6,666,667 per job. I could create a job with that much money: counting all my fucking money.
Actually, yeah, one can pick 3k people and just pay them 4k$ per month indefinitely till they die and something will remain.
These corps are slimy Fucks. It probably did create 3k jobs. Low paying, temporary jobs. These layoffs are probably other jobs
The U.S. should sue the shit out of them.
It seems you are confusing US for EU
The string is that they use it for the creation of a domestic chip plant, not salaries for existing employees.
