I wish we can obtain our own rare earths - which we have. I don't understand how all the good stuff is in only under the Ukraine - but they do owe us.
The "good stuff" isn't only under Ukraine; they're a minor source.


Extending beyond rare earths to other critical elements, we see China is the cornucopia.

@Kenworth4954 No, I don't remember being told that, not at all. I DO remember being told that we're out of CHEAP oil. The breakeven costs of shale oil and fracking are high. Notice how the curve rises steeply in 2008 & again in 2010?



@MarmeeMarch asks
Then why aren't we looking in Alaska - which is the same thing as Canada.
The answer is capitalism. It's cheaper to continue buying from China.
