Subject: Re: CHIPS Act - question for 1pg
Not 1PG, but...
There is a pretty substantial construction expense up front which could be considered working class.

Today, these factories are mostly automated.
A large part of the staff would be considered "technicians" rather than engineers doing routine maintenance tasks on the machines. These folks would typically have a two year degree.

There will also be support staff doing things like planning, HR, finance, etc... but I think most of these positions will require a four year degree.

Finally a group of engineers doing more detailed problem solving, but they would likely be significantly outnumbered by the above.

The reason for the chips act is national defense. Chips are required for the military, and production is currently concentrated to Taiwan.
All else is just excuse and marketing.
