Gods speed, hope you succeed
Split out all the costs you want, itemize the bill, have at it. But if the sticker price says 45 dollah i want to be able to pay that and get what you offer. not have to take out the calculator and add stuff. I think there are to many americans obsessed with "big goberment stealing my moniez" .. who cares. If its in the price and the price is competitive I dont care that x% is tax. It will be the same on all competing products too.
Yes, the Kurds are pumping up the oil and using it to fund their military machine. Hence the strained relationship with Turkey... They really dislike Kurds.
The US denies oil revenue to a crazy dictator selling it to fund his crazy antics and prevents Russian proxies from capturing the fields to fund their crazy antics all with minimal troops.
It's not as if the alternative would be that the oil revenue is used to buy happyness, health and prosperity for the Syrian people.
Or those Russian tanks they had are now freed up to be transported elsewhere.
Less yapping.. put up or shut up. TSMC could use some serious competition.
