Mass duplicate rare earth metals at a rate that would crash economies and make white goods and alternative energy sources actually cheaper than fossil fuels.
Then while the world’s having an absolute fit trying to recover from that, I’d find a way to duplicate expensive and hard to make medicine till it’s functionally worth less than the packaging it comes in.
You didn’t mention mining, you mentioned making alternate energy sources cheaper than fossil fuels. Considering the topic of the thread, I also didn’t connect that you might of meant the environmental costs.

The thing is, alternative energy sources already are cheaper than fossil fuels :(
Cadmium, lithium and nickel mining are not cheaper than oil extraction and are more harmful to the environment.

I did mention the rare earth metals first.
Okay, but I was pointing out how alternate energy choices are already cheaper than fossil fuels? Which is a fact…
If you take into account harvesting and application, they are not. They are cheaper(in certain countries) on the consumer end. But that’s rare.
Wait, are you trying to make the argument that capitalists sell things for below cost???
No, they are cheaper at a grid-level power source level.
