And I can blame it on "Obama". It's never President Obama with some people.
Huh? I don't see the President mentioned in this thread at all... until you brought him up.

If the Chinese or anyone else creates unacceptable lead related emissions, forbid their importation.
Oh yeah, the Chinese buy our debt (float our money) so they control the flow of the economy...I forgot for a moment. Kira
Kira, are you picking up a discussion from another thread? I only brought up some economic realities. Lead is heavy, importing and exporting it means serious transportation costs. Less suppliers mean less competition and higher prices. That sort of thing.
BTW Forbidding importation would probably mean no batteries for us, at least until domestic mining got restarted... both would mean REALLY higher prices.
