Hillbillies can only think of choking China by holding back tools for making mouse traps

US lawmakers chairing key House committees on Tuesday (Feb 10) urged the State and Commerce Departments to restrict China's access to advanced chipmaking equipment, warning that gaps in export controls threaten national security....

"We urge the Administration to press allies to implement countrywide controls on key chokepoint semiconductor manufacturing equipment and subcomponents: that is, all equipment and subcomponents that China cannot produce indigenously," the letter to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said.

The signatories also include House Foreign Affairs Ranking Member Gregory Meeks and several members of the South and Central Asia Subcommittee who called for restrictions on servicing existing equipment already operating in Chinese chip facilities, arguing that such maintenance is essential for these tools to remain functional.  CNA

The hillbilly clowns in Washington are still in the dark ages, thinking that the world had stood still. What they are trying to do against China is like wanting to stop China's growth by cutting off selling ICE automobiles to China. With their small and empty minds, the smart Americans are in Wall Street making money, these dead woods can only think of bringing down China everyday and nothing else.  Oops, their only other interest is waiting to be invited to Epstein Island to have lunch.

Creating chokepoints by keeping machine tools to themselves! My goodness, did they know how far ahead China is now vis a vis cowboy country America. Got to forgive them as most of these hillbillies are D graders and did not study anything close to science and math. They opted for the easier less intense courses like liberal arts and law. Just use their mouths, not their heads. STEM subjects are frightening to these dead woods.

Trying to close the barn after the horse had bolted? China is now leading the Americans in practically every leading edge technologies, 66 out of 74, or at worst, level with the Americans. It is the Chinese that should be starting to think about using choke points to prevent the hillbillies from catching up. The hillbillies should not be worried about China challenging them to build ICE automobiles, or slow steam engine trains. And not to worry, China is not going to challenge them in the present chip technology that would soon be obsolete. China is finding new path and new technology to excel in.

The hillbillies have no clue about science and technology other than playing with their shotguns or handguns. We are now in the world of advanced chips, 1nm and 2nm, AIs, quantum technology, not machine tools, not making mouse traps.
