There’s already a state of the art Motorola semiconductor plant just sitting mothballed in Harvard, IL. During a 2 year chip shortage not a single manufacturer expressed interest in retooling it and opening it back up and yet we are to believe a small tax break is going to lure them here when a global chip shortage did not?
