Rare earth metals are not rare. They are better described as sparse. Collecting them from the tailings of bauxite after aluminum is extracted, is energy intense. China can do this because they have a power grid that isn't last century.

We can't because we do. Our energy production and distribution has been farmed out to private enterprise and they have let us down bigly.
