@zerohedge The fact that capital gains tax is NOT indexed to inflation means that it is in the governments interest to have inflation.
Remove that incentive by indexing, and maybe you have one way to force spending control.
Of course, this is EXACTLY why this will never become law.
@RealTheoWold@Oilfield_Rando@GovernorLittle This is NOT a parallel facility to the Boise fab. This is a package and test facility , which is the lowest value added portion of the semiconductor manufacturing process.
The Boise fab is the high tech part of the memory chip manufacturing process.
@realdefender45 I think it is hilarious that many/most H1Bs are hired directly out of college.
If you think you have ANY highly specialized knowledge fresh out of college, you are delusional.
@amandalouise416@TheLastRefuge2 Anyone who thinks H1b is going away is certifiably insane. Trump is the only elected offficial in the history of the US that has tried to do anything to slow H1B down and even he is half-assing it.
@zerohedge A sad day when even the FTC chair doesn’t understand supply/demand basics.
Antitrust action against the single most competitive manufacturing industry that humans ever invented?
@OwenGregorian A little bit of math and accounting here.
Debt is not “debt” until you spend the money. Future spending plans are not debt.
The real number and its actual trajectory is bad enough without making things up.
@tspooky@BenTallmadge01@MarkJCarney Anytime western leaders talk about semiconductors, you rewlly see how little they know about the industry. They should be embarrassed , but they are just reading the script provided them by the WEF.
