uranium and politics
during the 2016 presidential campaign (and even before), it was revealed that the obama-clinton administration allowed russia to acquire 20% of the united states uranium supply - a strategic mineral. further, congress currently has 3 different investigations involving russia and american politics and interest.
while many "facts" are emerging - it seems the liberal media is saying this was a straight up business deal - nothing illegal was done - while the conservative media is saying there were bribery, payoffs, and political quid pro quo going on - and who thought it was a good idea to give russia control over 20 % of our uranium?
so, in order to participate in this discussion you will need to research the current reports (within the last 2 years - as this story has been evolving from 2010) surrounding this issue and present evidence to support:
1. this was a shady deal for russia to control most of the world's uranium supplies, enhance individuals, and influence and support one facet of american politics.
2. this was straight up business deal, capitalism at its finest - in which the american government signed off on.
3. how might russia benefit from this deal? how might the u. s. benefit from this deal? what do you think russia will do with this uranium? or how might the individuals involved in the transaction benefit?
