Very nice. When the playing field is level, then I always bet on the US to win. We still are the country that works the hardest and is the most innovative. We just need leaders who don't give away what is rightfully ours. We deserve a level playing field. I just wish Trump would explain things to the American people. Maybe he could get more Liberals educated on why what he's doing is not starting a trade war, but actually trying to END the trade war that we've been losing for decades.

Getting the mill running again could take up to four months, the company said. “Our Granite City Works facility and employees, as well as the surrounding community, have suffered too long from the unending waves of unfairly traded steel products that have flooded U.S. markets,” U.S. Steel President and CEO David B. Burritt said in a prepared statement.
