Rare Earths aren't really rare. They are just messy to extract from the soil. This involves toxic processes Democrats have been more than happy to pass off to the Chinese. If China cut off rare earth supplies, they can be replaced, not just here but from other countries. — PolitiTweet.org

Of course the risk China runs if they limit rare earth availability is that industries will adapt and find other materials and processes to achieve the same result - thus killing China's own industry. They don't want to risk letting the world know we don't need them. — PolitiTweet.org
