As I said .... everything must fit your "hate the President" raison d'être.
Thanks for proving my point.
@Right_in_Virginia I don't think there is a bigger Trump hater here then
@edpc.
China practices dumping. What dumping does is put competitors out of business, once the
competitors are out of business then China controls the market. Right now China produces
over half of the worlds steel. I'd say China has been very successful at taking over the steel
making business. But since steel is a vital national resource, the USA must maintain the capacity
to produce it. A steel tariff will help the USA keep it's ability to produce it's own steel.
Back in the day, when schools educated young people, we all knew the importance of being able
to domestically produce stuff that was vital to the survival of the country. Even if that meant
we has to pay a little more for a can of soda.
