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.


This. The CHIPS Act is about sourcing of semiconductors in the US as a block to China.

Covid highlighted how fragile the supply chain for not only high-end microprocessors like Intel i9’s or Apple M-series, but also for simple things like LED drivers and motor controllers, which are produced in the hundreds of billions per year. You need that stuff just as much if not more.
