It is not even that much of an economic advantage. Please open your eye and heart to see what may happen to our ecosystem.

The water effected touches many state and international boundaries. Will we soon see cheap Chinese laborers in the area??-Rio Tinto is already selling out to China.

Consider that in 30 years time we won't even recognize our planet as we turn on our tap of fresh sludge and have to wear masks to walk outdoors. STOP FREAKING MINING ALREADY. THERE ARE OTHER WAYS TO BE PRODUCTIVE AND BE SUCCESSFUL, ESPECIALLY IF YOUR MEASURE OF SUCCESS CAN BE SHIFTED TO RECOGNIZE THE VALUE OF LIFE ON THIS EARTH AND THE EARTH ITSELF. - That is what I would like to say to all of these tunnel-visioned suits. Your land will be poisoned too. You are not immune to the consequences of the havoc you reak. The lack of foresight and attention to "multiple bottom lines" in this country is astounding.

Poised on the largest fresh water lake in America, where four out of five citizens have rejected this mine, you turn your backs of the people of this state. It's a disgrace. How can you do this?

This all ties in nicely with the suppression of the CDC's report on what's wrong in the Great Lakes... What's wrong is we have the wrong people protecting us from foreign interests. No long term industry or money will benefit the UP from this ravaging, only long term clean-up, which never gets finished anywhere else either. I'm saddened.
