But what about Voisey Bay, Labrador?

Labradors are smart, they understand supply and demand.

Exactly why we had “war nickels” that had not one milligram of nickel in them. Stainless steel was critical in WW2...and that was before we had turbines for planes, helicopters and tanks, not to mention batteries for various missiles. It is more critical now than ever, and likely the speculation pushing up its price has to do with an anticipated large military build-up. Hopefully Biden & Millie’s trannies can handle the heavy equipment.

Never let a crisis go to waste...and if you don’t have a crisis, you create one in a biolab. Once that one plays itself out, you go and start a war with someone who has 6,000 nukes...cuz then you can do ANYTHING and slap the label “national security” on it, and “treason” for those who try to point out your folly or violation of the Constitution.

We will be lucky to survive 3 more months.

Not a dang thing anybody can do about it.

I feel like The All-Time Loser on Jethro Tull’s Locomotive Breath…the train it won’t stop going, no way to slow down.

[caww]

Heck it’s everywhere - and nobody’s getting along anymore. Even here on FR if you disagree expect getting clobbered.

I’ll be surprised if there isn’t some sort of new “crisis” before November. /shiny side out

My guess is September - October.

(a war with someone who has 6,000 nukes)

LG wants to assassinate the leader.

As if they haven’t been prepared for that scenario for over at least 7 decades.

Like when JFK sent the wife and kiddies home but had his 19 year old college mistress called up.

How many Russian subs are sailing with nuclear-tipped SLBMs?

[SaveFerris]

Or should I have said 6-7 decades.

Sounds about right.
