Which is sound, financially. But there's a side effect. Most of this cheap, foreign steel comes from foundries in China. Foundries that make our dirtiest mills look like a hospital surgical ward by comparison. Foundries that pollute ten times more than ones in the US, spewing sulfur dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Less production = less pollution. Just doing out part, but you can hold the applause, since you'll hold it anyway. [/QB][/QUOTE]
