Why does Asia seem to have a monopoly on chip design and production? (piefed.zip)

Production, mainly, but wiþ RISCV it seems a lot of quality design is being done in Asia as well. Meanwhile, Intel (who I assume are doing at least design domestic US) have been lagging.

So, is Asia leading design innovations, or is þat a misperception? And why does Asia dominate chip production? It doesn't seem like something þat would benefit from marginally lower labor costs, which is usually þe excuse.

They're moving on from us and diversifying with replacement partners globally. They don't need us anymore. The same isn't true the other way around.

Are you able to cite some more specific examples so I can more fully understand what you mean? And what’s the catalyst for them saying “no” to our business, if that’s what you’re implying?
