Description

Is America in jeopardy?

Any day, America could be held hostage over critical minerals used in all advanced technologies due to the decades-long shunning of domestic mining.

Groundbreaking! describes the all-too-real consequences of misguided policy decisions and environmental alarmism, and recommends 21st-century solutions to sustainable self-reliance by leveraging the wealth right under our feet.

By importing 100% of key minerals from China, Russia, and third world dictatorships, we face an ongoing risk of losing the technology behind everything from smartphones to green technology. Recent requirements put into place by our legislators and regulators literally require tons of minerals for batteries and magnets to run electric cars; to support advancements in medical equipment such as MRIs; and to manufacture solar panels and wind turbines. Advanced weaponry and defensive equipment for our troops requires critical minerals, too, yet we are reliant on getting that gear from countries who at best could be called allies, and at worst are outright hostile to America's values.

Our policies must acknowledge the reality that critical minerals, or more accurately the lack thereof, often play a key role in dictating foreign policy and national security decisions.

Planning to adapt before a problem occurs must become a national goal. This means reversing dangerous import trends and exploring for domestic minerals.
