Subject: Re: Trump's central planning costs Apple $600B
How much more will he extort in the future?
How many other companies will do the same?
Although to be far, his central planning didn't actual cost Apple $600B. I cost Apple a statement that they would invest up to $600B in the U.S. There's no legal agreement, no binding commitment for them to do anything. But they were almost certainly going to do some serious spending in the states anyway, since they have to build server farms and power plants for their AI programs that have to be in the U.S. More than enough to serve as a fig leaf for the next 3.5 years and let Trump pretend he had something to do with it. But Apple probably won't spend much more than they would have done if Trump hadn't done anything.
