They could try learning a new skill.
I started as a bench technician and became an aerospace engineer.
I admit such a plan requires diligence and effort.

>Why is steel so important? Let’s look where steel -was- produced in our country. These cities are blue strongholds, still, and many are located around areas of poor minorities, since mills closed and wealth left the area.
>If Trump brings these people back in to work he can effectively eliminate blue-collar/poor black democrat areas.

You can’t even trust the Japanese anymore. God only knows what they put in the toyota I bought last year.
The nature of humanity being what it is, I gotta pay for the steelworkers regardless, either in the form of protection money (police to keep the unemployed rabble at bay), protection money (welfare,unemployment,SSDI scammers), or protection money (tariffs). I’ll take door #3 which at least comes with some steel.

That is no way to run science. Or even accounting.

Red Spy,
The oil industry is not important?

I approve the tariffs as long as every steel user in the country can get an exemption.
Auto companies deserve the help. They employ a lot of people.
If the government thinks steel is so important they should subsidize it or start their own mills.
That should work well.
Socialism all around is the way to go innit?
