Energy isn't something we have a problem about. And yes, everyone is trying to move chip production domestically. But TSMC is building fabs outside of Taiwan, it just takes government incentive to make it work. We also don't need to go after the high end, as I said solar cells are an option. The world relies on China for those and that's less appealing for the west right now.
When I say the next google can be founded here, I mean something which can change the world and grow into a huge company. With your clicks example it's clear that the internet as we know it is broken and there needs to be a fundamental change, I'm not saying we just copy google - that is stupid, but we create the climate where the next evolution in web, or whatever, can happen. We do that through putting our capital to work. We have a culture of innovation and tinkering, through the number 8 wire mentality, so there is no reason why someone working in a garage doesn't have the next big idea that will change the world for the better.
As I said, we have a huge advantage in our alliances and are part of a pretty exclusive club with the US, Australia, the UK, and Canada. Government procurement rules are very clear about the supply chain management of technology for those countries. That is an advantage that most of the world doesn't have.
