    I still think Arizona is just about the worst spot in the US to put a water intensive chip fab. It should be in the Rust Belt to revive the area and to not use up valuable water in the desert.

      Agriculture is the problem here. Not chip fabs or datacenters. There’s middle eastern owned farms here that grow alfalfa (notoriously water heavy) that export out of state/ country.
