No factory was built at all for foxconn in Racine county. A weird globe building was built that contains some kind of data center, although nobody knows for sure what goes on there. The whole thing was a complete boondoggle, although I don't know if anyone gained anything, it didn't even get Scott Walker re-elected.

Hopefully this TSMC thing is real and not just a game around tax credits. Kind of bonkers to me to build it in the desert as the colorado river is drying up if water is so important, though.
