This is the best scenario for a turnaround.

Wat ? Intel should own the government now. We need the leadership at Intel to fail everything
Germany should own the remaining 50%.
INTC no longer makes CPUs ! It's in the general contracting mega fab clean room space hustle ! Rent a Fab but don't bother with our design engineers cause they don't test nor modify anymore ! TSMC has them !x86 revival ! Let's go Pentium !
Better split and give 100% of the foundry to the government. Product team is tired of throwing billions to support it
Nothing is working everything must be shut down. Same sh-t at the same time.
That sounds an awful lot like socialism.
Government shutdown. LOL.
Yes US should own 50% of Intel unemployed workers at layoff office around the country. Congratulations to make Intel fail again.
China heavily subsidizes their tech industry. OP is suggesting that is better than pure capitalism. I think maybe I agree. Industry needs stability, not chaos.
The US gov should take a real stake in Intel.so maybe not full ownership but enough to shape its direction... right now Intel is sinking. every quarter there’s more bad news, more layoffs, more panic. it’s clear the private market doesn’t know what to do with a company like this anymore.
Semis keep everything running. defense systems, hospitals, power grids... almost all of them come from asia now. that’s a massive weak spot for a country that relies on stability / control. one blockade, one war... one political meltdown and the us would be stuck waiting for chips it no longer knows how to build.That’s a nightmare waiting to happen.
We still have the factories, the engineers, the know how (oh, maybe)... it’s the last American tech giant that actually makes the stuff on american soil. government ownership could protect that. it would mean jobs, research, and long term planning instead of short term profits. it would mean the country gets to decide what’s strategic instead of leaving it to investors who only care about next quarter. private money moves too fast. chip manufacturing takes decades to pay off. that’s why countries like taiwan and korea pour public money into it. their governments see it as survival. the us keeps pretending the market will handle it. it won’t. it never does with things that take patience and vision.
plus: intel jobs do matter. these are real, skilled jobs that build futures. if intel collapses or gets sold off, that talent leaves. once it leaves, it doesn’t come back. you can’t rebuild that kind of workforce overnight. it takes generations. the gov already does this with other industries. defense, aerospace, energy, space programs. those aren’t free markets, they’re partnerships that keep the country safe and strong. intel should be part of that circle. it belongs there. people might call it gov interference, but think about what we already prop up. banks, airlines, even social media when it crashes markets. intel is far more important than all of that.
Intel is more than a business. without it, USA risks losing control over its own tech . that’s not independence and im my eyes that is a true 100% decline. better to act now while there’s still something to save...
it was a long rant, heh
The same government that is shut down right now?
