Title: Strategic Materials & Associated Issues & Logistics
Post by: Body-by-Guinness on March 06, 2024, 05:53:09 PM
I couldn’t find anything this piece fit under & think there are numerous materials that fit under this rubric from rare earths to semiconductors to precursor meds to helium as shown here. Happy to move this if there is a place for it, but don’t want to scan 11 or more pages for an appropriate thread.

Yo Doug, would this be your backyard?

Fusion = Hydrogen --> Helium --> Stars

Yes, my backyard and playground. We go to the Iron Range for golf every year. They spent a little taxpayer money turning the wasteland of old iron mines into some of the most beautiful public golf courses in the country.

I should have known about the helium. The ball has a little bit more lift up there.  )

The Iron Range used to be where all the best hockey players in the country were made, back before it was a money driven, parent driven youth sport.

Mining issues shifted the region from total Democrat control to now solid Republican. The people in the Twin Cities want the Northern Minnesota wilderness untouched. The people who live there want jobs and commerce.
