The SEC doesn’t give a shit, and even if they do, they’re so understaffed that they are basically paralyzed to do anything of consequence. These corporations know what they can get away with, hell, they hire ex-SEC staff to their payroll or to their legal teams.

Chipmakers don't need to share any profits at all as long as their projections are correct within a certain margin. All this is saying is that companies can't lie and apply for a small margin fab only made possible by government funds, then make mad stacks in reality then leave. As long as the companies are rational and realistic in their applications everyone gets to keep their money.

There should be plenty of companies that apply openly laying out the case for mad profits and they will be able to keep all of it as long as they deliver.

lol no if you're a failing semi company you can take the money and without profits you just raise capex, pay some executive bonuses and it's gone. They just do the whole eco friendly and diverse hiring then leave the garbage with the government. Fantastic companies that nobody ever heard of like "Solitron Devices" will gladly take that deal I bet.

Sounds like a true communist speaking that thinks government regulated companies are the solution.
