If Apple wants to source its chips for pennies from foreign suppliers, it should have to pay a price to do so, such as a duty on imported iPhones using only foreign-sourced chips. Realizing the promise of the CHIPS Act depends on acknowledging and addressing Apple’s outsized influence over our domestic chip industry.

This is a well written article. The thing that stands out to me, though, is that Apple is simply playing the capitalism game.

Make things cheaper and they'll buy it, that's all they're looking for.
