America is not part of Europe. No reason to spend European money supporting American companies.

European money for European manufacturing staffed exclusively with Europeans and making chips for European products used by Europeans in Europe.

The question OP asked is why it matters to you that the company that owns the fab is not European? The local investment is what should matter, no?

Local investment is good. Subsidies to American companies is not.
