We don't even have silicon availability. I don't mean chips or printed boards, I mean processed quarts crushed into powder.
We would have to start opening strip mines and building massive furnaces and crushers and expanding railways. It's just not feasible.
Do it.
Rest assured if they fix the rail system or will be to put us in cattle cars on a rather unfun one way trip.
Yeah fr we should, but we haven't and we probably won't so it's silly to expect the manufacturing to pop up out of thin air.
