* $20m/kilo? I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. Let's face it, that's what's going to happen. Tell you what, we'll flatten ''this'' half for our Unobtanium, and you can have ''that'' half for your miracle cures, especially since without our half, you won't be able to get here for your half. I really doubt any Earth government is really going to care about some blue catgirls billions of miles away if that's what it takes to keep the world running. Humans will return, and this time, they won't bother landing until everything is dead.
** [[Idiot Ball|Congratulations, you just destroyed the unobtainium]]. Anyway, as mentioned above, the RDA are limited in what weapons they HAVE and can use.
** Yeah, except they were already blowing countless billions on the Avatar program to avoid precisely that issue. PR issues are preventing them from doing that in the first place, and I don't think a PR problem that's so severe that it requires that kind of expenditure on a world that far away to mollify is going to go away so easily. If the RDA is spending that much money on a program that far away in an effort to keep the morality hounds back on Earth at bay, just imagine how far up their asses the objectors have to be. I'm imagining some horrific fusion of Greenpeace and [[Warhammer
*** Yeah, they spent billions of dollars on the Avatar program, and it failed utterly. With that in mind, they would certainly come back and obliterate the Na'vi from orbit. And, seeing as how they would then be to soul custodians of a multi-multi-multi-multi trillion dollar planet that is located 7 years away from any witnesses and that they would control the soul means of traveling to that planet, they'd more than likely get away Scott-free.
**** Again, hampered by the fact that they physically can't. Why do you think they were trying to maintain good relation wit ht the Na'vi? Becasue they weren't able to use any stronger weapons.
