I think Silicon Valley is more research and development, not so much manufacturing.

I've have some money parked in a IRA MM account for several years now, glad I had it parked during the recession! I didn't make anything, but didn't lose anything. I bought some Tesla 10 years ago, my wife howled at me for making such a DA investment, I don't howl, I just smile in satisfaction now! If there's going to be a chip MGF plant built in the US I would invest heavily in that company? But hey, I'm just a dumb plumber?

I remember years ago when Bit Coin came out and it was around $10 . Not one is around $75,000
Or more. Only if.

30* this morning 68* for the high….😎

Forgive me but I can't keep up with where you are reporting from...with those temp you're back from Florida...I think.

We can only do what consumers like us can do. More people should be mad at the governments for letting so much manufacturing go out of our countries. Look what’s happened now with the microchips. Wasn’t Silicon Valley the world leader in microchips. Is it even still there.
Screw China and bring back manufacturing to Canada and the US.

Recently heard there is $1T trade deficient with the Chicoms and just heard the world doctors and scientists were suppressed by big tech from saying the bug came from CCP lab...not news but nice they finally came forward to admit their opinions. We should not be going to the Olympics.

Texas Instruments used to be hot until the CCP stole the designs for their equipment.

They just revised that NW AR, .1 of ice and 2 to 10 inches of snow?

 

[Montecresto]

When it’s 70 up here, it will be 100 down there. Who’s laughing then. Haha.
Someday you will be able to feel our summer temperatures.
Won’t be long.
Caper

Well I’m not laughing now. Probably shouldn’t be 70* in late January …..🤔
Had to run the AC in the tractor today….😳

The price of everything will increase exponentially, then everyone will be pissed at the president/PM for that….🤔

I thought the prices had already increased, from waiting on imports?

But then it will say
Made in Canada
Not China.
And it will last more than a year.

That’s global.
The last administration promised to bring manufacturing home. Clearly, it doesn’t want to come home…

Let me know when manufacturing returns. In the meantime, it’s still stamped “Made In China” on the back….😂

Montie, I know you'ed want to know the recipe Melissa used, it was Chateaubriand finished with herb butter from long legged cows, you know to keep the butter clean! HA! It was a delicious mini Prime Rib.
