Kia and Hyundai to build EVs in Mexico

Mexico happens to be home to the world's largest lithium deposits. AMLO could nationalize that resource and send every Mexican citizen a check. Like they do in Alaska with the oil. I mean isn't that the whole concept of nationalizing a resource, it belongs to all the citizens?

OTOH, we have no real idea what kind of pressure AMLO is under from the big international banks, multi-national corporations and rich-country governments. And China.
Also why climate change will never really get addressed. But we can all drive EVs, install solar panels, recycle and feel like at least we are not making it (much) worse.
