The U.S. Needs a High-Tech Manhattan Project
The United States needs to wrest the initiative in high tech from China and re-establish American dominance in telecommunications, computation, artificial intelligence, materials science, chip design and lithography, manufacturing, and other key fields. It doesn't matter how much it costs.
