   > So far, however, the law has done little to spur the construction of new semiconductor factories in Europe. The European Court of Auditors concluded last year that the EU is unlikely to achieve its goal of doubling Europe’s share of the global chip market by 2030.

   They should make another law and probably a few more commissions of auditors.

         I get its sarcasm but TSMC has done so much to try to get the Americans getting some decent yields in their new factories and it's failing so hard, there's real questions about whether they can ever meet their targets. They've sent thousands of existing Taiwanese workers to help at this point and from anecdotal things I hear it's not going well. (I live in Taiwan)

         This stuff is all blood, sweat and tears to get it done, and to be honest a culture.

         You can't just buy it off the shelf. If that was possible everyone would have gone paid for it like an Ikea product years ago.

            Older article, but seems like things are going pretty ok?
