One solution: a sovereign wealth fund. Korea and Taiwan used development banks to make profitable investments in strategic industries. Returns flowed back to fund more projects. The CHIPS Act was grantsβ€”this would be loans and equity-based.

China pegged its currency artificially low in 1994, making their exports cheaper and American goods more expensive. Clinton warned in '97 this would hollow out American industry by making it impossible to compete on price.

There's a huge dead zone in industrial financing. Venture capital looks for 25%+ returns; manufacturing risk profiles don't work for traditional banking. Even though there are tons of profitable factory projects returning 8-12%, funding is scarce at best.
