I think it is more precise to say we have an allergy to resource development done traditionally - where the government incentivises multinational companies like crazy with tax and royalty breaks even as myriad social and environmental impacts are isolated from the project as externalities - thereby disenfranchising the locals as it is they who unavoidably pay those costs, generally with limited to non-existent compensation or acknowledgement. It is about time we developed that allergy- we need a better way of doing things and one that includes spreading the wealth and the costs more effectively, not one that continues enriching those who already have more than they need- or in many cases  deserve. Even the US electorate has declared support for that- just in case you have not been paying attention.
