Please, if you’re going to plop this bullshit here, cover it up so it doesn’t stink up the joint.

President Joe Biden is turning to a Cold War-era law to boost production of lithium and other minerals used to power electric vehicles, but experts say the move by itself is unlikely to ensure the robust domestic mining Biden seeks as he promotes cleaner energy sources.

Biden’s action, part of his efforts to find alternatives to fossil fuels and combat climate change, does not waive or suspend existing environmental and labor standards, the White House said. Nor does it address the chief hurdle to increased domestic extraction of so-called critical minerals: the years-long process needed to obtain a federal permit for a new mine.

Even so, the mining industry and supporters in Congress cheered Biden’s use of the 1950 Defense Production Act to increase U.S. supplies of lithium, nickel and other minerals needed for electric-vehicles batteries and other clean-energy technology.

His March 31 executive order is a historic step by the White House to “recognize the critical importance of minerals and push to electrify the car industry,″ said Rich Nolan, president and CEO of the National Mining Association.

Mines are often in remote areas. Attracting workers can be hard. The company will have to build housing and provide ordinary amenities like shopping and restaurants.

None of this means that new mines can't be built. It just can't be done quickly.

Australian miners have solved this problem.

Its called "Fly in fly out".

All you have build on site are dorms and a commissary. Then teams fly in from some home town somewhere thousands of miles away for 3 week shifts or whatever.

The thread is the usual slogans and you can guess them all. Here's what I want to say: If people are saying that on the twits, and if you are taking them seriously and accepting that as a reason not to vote for Democrats, then you deserve to live in a fucking dictatorship. If that's "Anti-American" then guilty. Jesus H Christ.

Besides, Biden campaigned on $10K debt forgiveness, so he is fulfilling an election promise with which he dominated the Democratic Primaries. Only an entitled ass looks at $10K and spits it out becasue he wants $50k with everything else that's on the line.
