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

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.
