First, the H1B issue became an issue, not because of vivek’s tone deaf tiger mom screed, but because of Sriram’s nomination.

Second, I encourage you to do a thurough deep dive on Elon Inc and China, and really dive. Please don’t just take Elon commentator’s conclusions as fact.

He makes stuff where he sells stuff (or where FTAs allow it) and I suspect this will be the model going forward. US sold cars are routinely credited as having the most American supply chain. SpaceX, of course has to have an American supply chain. China accounts for the bulk of the profits, but instead of spinning up another factory there and exporting from it, round three of the expansion was Berlin and Texas.

Make stuff as close to where you sell it, this should be the way.
