Here is the thing. Its not about what can happen in 20+ years. Of course the US can do whatever it want's in 20 years with enough money. In 20 years lot of things will be very different.
But again, there was already plenty of lithium in the US, this discovery changes nothing. The US already has competent lithium companies.
The US already has good relationship with South America and Australia where the resources are coming from. But currently 90%+ of refining is in China.
Controlling the 'raw' resources is mostly uninteresting in this case.
