You can count on the democRATs to oppose mining and refining. The EPA will have to be reigned in and care will have to be taken in refining plant process selection and facility design.
Yup—this is a classic case where China is not the problem.
Democrats and leftists are.
The EPA will have to be ended.It is a bureacuracy set up for power accumulation first and foremost.
A lot of this scenario will depend on the 2026 and especially the 2028 elections. A pro-China and anti-U.S. Congress and/or administration could stop the whole thing.
I can’t put a toilet in my house without 100 bureaucrats signing off and 1000s of pages of regulations.
You’re right. No way in hell the bureaucrat class will allow a single shovel of dirt to start new mines and processing centers.
