rare-earth minerals aren't "rare" in availibility they are rare PER amount of earth it's very labor intensive which makes it expensive to mine which is why countries with oppressed labor can do it far cheaper than USA ALSO it's extremely toxic with radioactive byproducts in the earth accumulated which again why companies in USA didn't want to do it for little to no profit But he's still going to invade Greenland, he's already got CIA mucking around there trying to get rid of opposition to forced annexation

> which is why countries with oppressed labor can do it far cheaper than USA > which again why companies in USA didn't want to do it for little to no profit Genuinely asking, do you really think American megacorps care about their laborers and the environment? There are many reasons why America is falling behind economically, but their dominant corps being too moral and ethical is not one of them.
