I’ll take a 5 year plan that will be cancelled in year 4 when the current administration changes parties for $100 please Alex
It’s interesting how Americans are increasingly reverting to a soviet style 5 year plan goals and propaganda messaging model.
The 20,000 jobs pitch is a red flag of sorts that this is not a net new project and existing plans were packaged for a PR push with some catchy headlines about $0.5 trillion spend.
they pulled the same PR BS in 2019 when they presented their all-american made Mac Pro. Device which then never got an upgrade and wasn’t even assembled in the US for international customers. It’s all posturing to look good until the current presidential mandate is over, then it’s back to normal business.
I am curious if the US administration is in on the scheme or if they simply don’t care. They heard the $500 billion number and decided that it is good propaganda (they believed the number alone would be sufficiently effective) and didn’t bother to even look at the details or verify the roadmap.
i suspect everything is transactional with the current admin, there’s surely something in it for them. Tim Apple seems to be ready to go with the flow.
