Here's your comunism

American weapons will soon be forced to rely on Chinese made chips.
Either that or start training mice and birds to steer the missiles. Like anti-tank dogs and Torpedo dolphins.

Truth is stranger than fiction sometimes.

no more intel for europeans i guess

I guess that being freed of the backdoors is a thing to be happy with

Remember when we bailed out all the airlines because they were "too big to fail?" Lol.

Here's your communism

Already had strong whiffs of that anyway. Karl Marx wrote about the 10 planks in the Communist Manifesto. Plank 5 describes the importance of a central bank to enable communism.

Instead of our economy being built on free market concepts of minimal government economic intervention, we have the Fed interfering integrally in the entire economy by affecting the interest rate. There's a consistent reason Karl Marx in The Communist Manifesto calls central banks one of the 10 pillars of a communist economy: Central banks limit individual freedom and put bureaucracies and secret committees in charge of important economic decisions.

Round and round the businesses go, when the government stops bailing them out? No one knows.

Is this even Legal?

Yes, they often do it all the time with many other (military & intelligence) tech companies like Microsoft but they call them contractor jobs.

How many Trump donors are on their c-suite?

You should look that much at their c-suit, but instead you should look more at the main shareholders of Intel instead (people like Vanguard, Black Rock, State Street and the people whose money is managed by them), the c-suite folks are just minions for them.

 

[Draugoth]

That's literally a bailout, there was speculation that Trump wanted TSMC to own 50% of Intel.

If they're moving that fast into it, and a week after Gamers Nexus report on Intel, the company is probably crashing really fast.

Guess there's no such thing as too big to fail - oopsie

Better than fall to Communist China.

In order to fight Communist China, you have to become Communist China!

Did US government hit the jackpot?

Stock price was around $25 in Aug25, now it is $80!

$2.2B at $25 = $7B at $80?

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Seems the gov knows something about Intel's future we don't. Have your reps and senators bought some stake, too? Might be a good time to jump in, I've heard your politicians have a tendency to become stock market savants very suddenly the moment they become senators or something.
