Yes! Go!

BUT Democrats and Republicans need to get silly regulations off the books and help industry. CHIPS act was a small start.

I applaud Gary Peters for spear heading the CHIPS initiative. We are so blessed to have a younger smart leader than the bureaucratic oaf, Carl Levin.

I agree that Peters is better than Carl Levin.

Ready manufacturing capacity is a matter of national security. Leaving our fate to overseas imports carries inherent risks, as the chip shortage has demonstrated.

I'm going to pinch myself; we all agree, LOL.

But what are we doing about red tape? For example, what about the moronic Section 106 of environmental code that requires expensive so-called environmental studies, that just is padding the wallets of tribal leaders halfway across the country that Clinton signed as an executive order?

Why should it cost $30,000 to get tribal goons to sign off on paperwork, just to move one shovel of dirt, because some ancestor may have walked across the property 400 years ago? Remember these tribal permissions are required wherever a federal permit of any type is required, or federal funds/grants are used.
