whats the difference between 1 intel chip or 1000 SMIC chips when you can build 2 coal fired power plants per week, no regulation on pollution, no federal judges to tell you to stop, no labor unions, no hippies regulating you out of business, and a government that decides on a whim what their currency is worth?
