We have plenty, it is just cheaper to buy from China.
Click bait.

While we have plenty in the ground, the facilities to mine and refine the raw materials are lacking. AND, the EPA will fight tooth and nail any program to actually produce industrially useful materials in the US.

We are our own worst enemy.

Look for a 5 year supply disruption if China cuts us off. The economy can go very far downhill in 5 years...
