I have a theory that China is trying to deplete the US and our allies of as much of our strategic metals as they can get their hands on.

Just found this video that give credence to my theory...

I believe that China may be paying the drug and illegal alien importing cartels above market prices for strategic metals so their networks can steal copper and other metals from our light poles and graveyards to be exported via the black market to China.

I also wonder about where all the metal from the cash for clunkers program went to?
