      >NOOOO WE NEED OUR CHINESE SWEATSHOP LABOR NOOOO

      It's so goofy, considering things are already outrageously expensive. How much does it cost to make an iPhone? Like $10? Then they get sold at 10,000 percent higher for literally no reason. If we're going to pay a shit ton of money for amenities, I'd prefer the workers to actually be American.

      @sapphire @matty yeah, some of the comments are saying $300 in parts. But I know enough about electronics to know you can't assume "more advanced == more expensive" because if you have something like a touch screen for instance, that was having a high failure rate - and you fixed that - features can increase while cost goes down.

      @sickburnbro @matty parts cost for the iPhone 5 was $206 (confirmed with supply chain leaks) so there’s zero way they’ve reduced that by half with more advanced phones and 100% real inflation

      @sickburnbro @sapphire Yeah I'm not so sure about that cost. Perhaps that's overall cost, including research and development man hours. I was just talking about the cost of the actual device manufacturing itself. Either way, I'll pay a bit more if it means my countrymen are taken care of.

      @sickburnbro @matty I’m ok with companies making money, unlike most of yall niggas seem to be

      AS LONG as they’re doing it in ways that help me and my people. I’d pay 1800 dollars for an iPhone in a heartbeat if they moved manufacture to my home town and employed my high school buddies to make them at $25 an hour, even if that doubled their profit margins

      @sapphire @sickburnbro I don't give a fuck how much money a company makes as long as they don't use that money to basically do what they're doing now.

      @matty @sickburnbro A decade+ ago me and a friend brought to greece (eu country with a Chinese owned port) from Shenzen China, one standard container of 9000btu split unit air conditioners (the preferred type in Europe). We used them in house/bungalow flipping/eu green standard regulations upgrades. They were one part of the upgrades/remodeling etc. We ended up charging about 400 euros for each them apart from installation.
      Those units cost end to end from the factory in China to a lot my friend had in Greece a couple of hours outside Athens, all payed, from taxes to the container to the truck that carried the container from the harbor to the lot to the crane that unloaded it from the truck onto the lot grounds, around 30 euros each. 1 standard container. Pretty much the smallest import worth doing and the most highly cost one (from the ones worth doing) because of its small scale.

      @sickburnbro @matty In the end, it's mainly about moving production of critical War Material out of the enemy's base camp. It has nothing to do with helping American workers. If they could get away with importing 100% of the workforce from Taiwan they would do it, but they hired some office workers and nigger janitors to appease the local population and shipped in Gooks for all the good jobs.

      @sickburnbro @matty In the case of the TSMC plant, it is actually operating, so at least when war with China comes, the MIC can still make fancy weapons. I think most of the rest of the CHIPS money was just flat out stolen.

      @Mister_Sunshine @matty https://spectrum.ieee.org/tsmc-arizona if this is what you're talking about - this isn't operating yet, and was started, iirc before chips was passed.

      @sickburnbro @matty I checked. The TSMC plant is the only one that received CHIPS money that has reached production. The rest are still milking as much as possible from the allocations as they drag their feet with construction. The list is longer, but the rest are smaller amounts and none have resulted in actual production.
