GM to spend nearly $7B on EV, battery plants in Michigan

1. Good News For Michigan.

I just read this morning that Idaho is sitting on top of one of the world's largest deposits of cobalt. Cobalt is a necessary ingredient in making Li-Ion batteries. Whether you think that's a good thing or not, it would certainly (help) free us of the perils of importing cobalt from Africa and other politically unstable areas, and as well as help control prices. Assuming of course, that any mining of said cobalt actually occurs. Mining permits have to be issued, ecological surveys done before that, etc. Lawsuits probably out the wazoo to hold it all up...🤷‍♂️
