The CHIPS act is a subsidy and actually helped increase inflation, no I'm more in favor of not incentivizing companies to off shore.I do agree that the genie can't wholly be put back in the bottle, but at least some of the manufacturing done back here.Automation does not eliminate as many jobs as you portray, I've automated alot of facilities. yes I'm awaew of the pacific rims role in tech manufacturing, I've worked overseas also. to wit, j believe the largest emerging manufacturing hub will probably be India.As with many things in life I I believe it's not either/or but rather somewhere in the middle.

So also the question for us of "how much is it worth to not have bad neighbors".Full background >>The tenant left a few weeks ago, leaving behind every bedroom full of garbage (to the ceiling), smoke smell in the house, broken toilet, ceiling was never fixed from water damage a few years ago, floors have dried cat vomit and rotting garbage stains, couple broken windows, federal pacific panel (fire hazard), they dont know if the heat works, the list goes on...The seller overpaid for it in 2022 as part of 3 pack of rather delipated properties in town.

On the northern coast in Tillamook County Oregon vacation rental rules were recently expanded which reduced or eliminated the waitlist for a permit in several optimal areas including Manzanita, Pacific City, Nehalem and Netarts. 

From what I have read, insurance prices in CA should be much higher than they are now, and insurers are not allowed to raise prices without approval from the State.In one story, a guy wanted to buy insurance and was willing to pay for it but nobody would insure his Pacific Palisades home. 

JOel what folks dont realize is that CA has a huge influence from Asia Pacific HUGE and also HUGE amount of High paid Engineers from India etc etc..

Quote from @Lambros Politis: My real estate portfolio, located in the Pacific Northwest (technically a primary, A/B class market), still presents tenant headaches.
