Re:‘Better Yield on 5nm Than 7nm’: TSMC Update on Defect Rat... by edge17 on Tuesday August 25, 2020 @01:44PM (#24273904)
Yep, generally agree. Might disagree on what's too much and what not, but your point that free trade (and almost anything in life) taken to the limit will have dire consequences in other places is important. Free trade is a framework.

I find a lot of people in the US are quick to point out the problems with free trade, but tend not to look at examples of places that took strong protectionist positions and how that played out over the span of decades. Point being, there are examples to be made for either argument being taken towards a limit.
