Extortion 17 and the loss of lives of seal team six. Was this the result of a corrupt government?

Extortion 17.  They let them die.  They gave them over to the enemy.  They is our leaders.  The current Obowma administration.  Watch the video.  This even bigger than the Benghazi cover up.  Pretty sad when you really can't trust your own government in America. The video brings out some alarming ideas that if true does not speak well for or of America's current leaders. 

It takes too long in the U.S. to get a mining permit.

This delay in getting mining permits in America is costing our country jobs. It is hurting collectively the mining industry in America. This while other countries like Canada, Australia, China and Brazil are surging ahead. Canada and Australia are well established in mining while China and Brazil have recent surged perhaps even pulling ahead of America in some instances. Rare earths in China. Biofuels in Brazil. We have the resources but are not using them. That seems like treason to me. This is destroying America while other countries are prospering. We are losing our middle class while the middle class in China and India is emerging in a big way. It is good to see them prosper and I say God bless them but it should not have to come at the expense of America. We need H.R. 4402 and we need it yesterday. A healthier and better America is a healthier and better world.

May 2, 2012 In testimony last week before the House Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources, National Mining Association (NMA) President & CEO Hal Quinn urged strong congressional support for the Strategic and Critical Minerals Production Act of 2012 (H.R. 4402), sponsored by Republican Mark Amodei (R-Nev.): “H.R. 4402 tackles one of the highest hurdles for domestic mining: permit delays. The length, complexity and uncertainty of the permitting process are the primary reasons investors give for not investing in U.S. minerals mining,” Quinn told the subcommittee. “Delaying permits for mining projects is not a new problem. What is new is the growing awareness of its implications for our nation, particularly in a highly competitive world economy in which the demand for minerals continues to grow, especially in fast growing economies led by China and India.”.

Prospecting.

In some earlier posts I have talked a little bit about prospecting. I gave some information about some of my grandfather's claims and recently a few posts about my dad's claims. I have decided to add this prospecting slant to the theme of this blog and put more emphasis on it. It won't be just about gold, though I will be talking about that. It will also be about gemstones. If you check out some of the links you will see that I have already made a step in that direction. I have also had a few posts about gemstones and will likely do much more in this area. I will also mention from time to time some current events in our country, America, that affect prospecting, mining our resources and individual prospectors. I will likely move away from the nutrition theme of this blog. I am doing this rather than start a new blog because this one is already establishes and does have some foundation for the theme of prospecting.
