RE: How The Fed Is Selling The United States Right Out From Under Your Feet
Ugh... It's happening in Minnesota, too. Minnesotans banded together and managed to block a PolyMet (Canadian mineral extraction company with a terrible environmental track record) mining permit, only to have the Trump administration over-rule it. A lot of people in northern Minnesota are happy about the whole 80 jobs coming, all of which are high-skilled engineering jobs that they're not qualified for.
The best part? It's right on the edge of the Boundary Waters, a huge national wildlife area in Northern Minnesota. The mine will include a huge holding pond of highly acidic liquid. Even better, there is a river that runs right into Lake Superior, so if there's a flood, we can destroy the largest of the Great Lakes, too.
But hey! Someone will make a bunch of money.
That is just messed up. Well, I guess Nestle is looking to drain the Great Lakes and sell them back to us in bottles, maybe they will step in to protect the water... HAHAHA! Oh, that is not really funny...
omg! Can that not be stopped? We are frucking the world up :-(
There is a pretty strong opposition and they're planning on suing, but greed and big business seen to generally get their easy.
:-(
