no better time to turn that country into a parking lot...then we dont have to worry about roads
 
yeah some of the worlds largest companies (with corporate economies larger than some of the countries they mine) have been squeaking out a just minor profit from those deals.

you are right about one thing though, afghanistan will still be a shit hole, 99% of the people wont see a dime from anything, and many people will die fighting to gain control while a few people earn billions
 
Let's Cuba that shit. Give them their country but build a military perimeter around the major mineral deposits and privatize that area.
 
but yea, i dont see this shit making it's way back to benefit any local citizens...

it's going to go into some private companies coffers, and a few very rich people will get even more rich.
 
Maybe if we could cut the fucker out of the middle-east sand and tow it to the coast of Florida.

Better yet, we could just slap it on top of Florida and kill two bird with one stone
 
problem is stated that companies wont make bank just with the amount logistical problems they will run thru. our own military has a hard enough time supplying the troops over there.
 
Yep.

Though if there's a country with the money and man-power to throw wildly at such a venture, China would be it. Especially if they can overcome some of the technological hurdles with their recent booms.
