    As I said originally, this is just a convenient cover to deflect away from their own poor performance as a company and put the onus on the government.

    Then explain TSMC doing the same. It is more believable that the subsidies aren’t enough to make manufacturing attractive and more needs to be done.

      I already explained that TSMC can’t get their fab running because they don’t want to pay US wages to contractors and employees. This has been widely reported on already.

        There you go. So for Samsung too a similar reason is more likely. A Fab would require workers, land, supply chain, and so on. Subsidies are only one part of the equation, and if any other part is unattractive then more subsidies would be needed.

        You need to understand that the reason CHIPS Act exists in the first place is to make it attractive for companies to set up fabs in the US. If the US was already attractive, the CHIPS Act wouldn’t be necessary.
