Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77938128 China and Japan sold products here for LESS than it cost to produce and ship them here, just to get their foot in the door. Now, we are fucked since NAFTA ran rampant for so many years. Look at speakers... So many were made in the USA until the mid 90's early 00's. After that, you can only get super expensive brands that are made here. Why can't you answer the fucking question. Have the tariffs helped correct this? No. My God, the level of sheer ignorance and stupidity that gets user pinned on GLP these days is unbelievable. You're talking about less than 1% of ONE steel manufacturer's employees, while DOZENS of other steel manufacturers are RAMPING UP production, BUILDING NEW steel mills, and HIRING 1000's of new employees. Here's one article (you can do your own internet searches for 100's more) discussing what two steel manufacturers are doing. [link to www.autonews.com (secure)] From poster above: "But the tariffs crushed construction - i know because i do it. 40% increases on cost slowed it all again. but i will vote for trump ~ he beats socialism, and every dem running will advance that agenda. Socialism will kill us all faster than tariffs. I can survive and outsmart /outwork tariffs." Well? well what? will i vote trump again? yes. The tariffs are misled. But once again, socialism kills everything. So yes, i will vote trump again, and like im doing now - and still making money, i will work around misplayed bills, executive orders and acts that appease the dumbass on the street as "good news" and keep rolling.

Yea - this unfortunately. If you tariff one country on a product, you need to tariff them all. It didn't used to be this way but things are so much faster now. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 72342558 Canada08/20/2019 10:04 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hey retard US Steel employed 29,800 people in 2018. Quoting: Math 69893862 That’s less than 1% of the work force. Companies that size make adjustments all the time in employment numbers. So, what was the purpose of the Chinese tariffs then? Trump said that it was to bring manufacturing and heavy industry back to America. Another fucking lie? Labor is too costly here now. Labor can never really come back. We are fucked as a nation and nobody can see it. What region of the US do you live in? No real matter... I may be able to point something out you overlook every day. In times when labor was expensive, look at bridge built then. They are mostly steel. When labor was cheap, they made bridges nice ornate concrete rails and decorative curbs. I am not talking about MAJOR bridges, just some that may only be 25-30 feet on a highway you drive over every day. So, what were the fucking tariffs for? To collapse the U.S. economy? Trump has a plan. |

If business is moving to another state it wouldn't be suprising. |

Especially heavy industries. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73174730 It would take years for that to happen, even a decade. You don't just build a manufacturing plant, tool it up and make it happen in 2 years time. The only uptick would be existing manufacturing adding shifts and that we have seen. At least here in Michigan. |
