YES this exactly all of it! Our medicines, batteries, glass ware, textiles, furniture, ALL of it! I get so mad at Nixon a lot of this rests on him, my dad was right about him!
Yes Kissinger was one of the worse, the whole Nixon administration got us off the gold standard, got us involved with China, put us further into the petro dollar, all of it.
Even things made in the USA depend on raw materials from other countries. All the plastics and resins used in just about everything, can’t be produced here because of regulations.
The chip shortage is real. Where I work is looking at 52 week lead times and there are zero parts available from distributors. Can't build products. Looking at changing design because of parts availability but it turns out none of the alternatives are available either. It looks like all the parts have been bought up by brokers.
I think in the case of our problems, the silicon was made but blocked at the packager for wire bonding etc. I believe the packager is in China proper.
My theory was that CCP ordered Chinese companies to fuck over Western companies and give priority to internal industries, in an effort to hamstring us industry and military resupply, and capture market share.
The U.S. needs to manufacture their own and stop relying on other nations.

For security reasons first and foremost
China makes too much of the world's medication, including antibiotics

You'll be desoldering them from scrap boards soon :-(
Yep, buy a propane torch now before they are gone as well
I have never tried desoldering with a propane torch.
I have one so I can try it.
All chips depends on Taiwanese technology. Taiwan is the tipping point for WW3, but it might also just be the safety valve .. lets see.
It's real all right. We had to create 5 alternate designs to work around it, and we are not out of the woods yet. But they question is, why?

Theory 2: What if the chip shortage is because those companies are busy making nanotech crap to go in the vaxx?
Is the image the wrong one for this article?
I was wondering that too. After all, I have a hole in my sock.
Is your real name, Brandon?
"These are not the droids you are looking for..." works both ways, lol.
Omg I didn’t know they were doing this , my God , nazis, they will try to come for us , we will be ready!
We need to start up the processing of Rare earth metals again.
