The United States is currently the largest helium producer in the world. Commercial extraction happens continuously—it takes months to years to build an extraction plant at an existing natural gas field, and 3 to 5 years to develop brand-new exploratory reserves from scratch.
Do you think we'll run out of helium because we sold the US government stockpile to a private company?
As the largest helium producer, I mean.

While the US is the world's largest helium producer (accounting for over 40% of global supply), the country frequently fails to meet its own demand due to structural production constraints and global supply chain shocks

Sounds like that helium stockpile wasn't good for nothin'.
