Tariff's - Page 2

Uranium One Is all to itself ,
The Clinton's benefited financially
Bill Clinton - A Russian bank paid $500,000 speaking fee
$145 million went to the Clinton Foundation and is linked to Uranium One
Hillery Clinton had ONE MAIN power wile in office she could of been the VETO vote
When you look at the ABOVE moneys it becomes clear of the truth 20 Percent of United States' Uranium to Russia
in Exchange for Clinton Foundation Donations & speaking fees
America to Candida to Russia .
She did not deserve to be president

Thank you for making my point Copperhead AKA.

Whether you like Trump or dislike him, he has fulfilled his promise to take office in an unconventional manner, make decisions in the best interest of America, and be unpredictable. Trump has lost over 400 million dollars of net worth since becoming president because many of the regulations that have been removed were actually to his benefit. Why would a real estate magnet propose increasing the cost of the raw materials he needs to continue to build his empire? As a business man he purchased steel and aluminum from China instead of the US mills because it was cheaper. From a business standpoint it does not make sense. The tariffs will hurt his empire, not help it. He is using it for the ability to negotiate for the United States, not his business interests.

The Uranium One scandal was just another example of those in power abusing the power for personal gain at the expense of the interests of our country. History is full of such examples: Jackson's Indian Wars to secure land for development, Harding's Teapot Dome Scandal, Grants Whiskey Scandal and Credit Mobilier Scandal which actually started during Lincoln's term (there were actually ten scandals during Grants terms). The point is this, although the tariffs might cause controversy (something Trump loves) he has actually made a decision that will hurt his empire and not help it. Why?

I stand by my earlier statement that the tariffs will not affect scrap metal very much. It will instead influence the other three legs of the table much more.

It gets me how there is so much information IN YOUR FACE commonsense dishonesty from the last administration yet all that is being done is TRUMP this and TRUMP that
yet nothing to find , I lost complete respect for the democrat party & wile this is IMO not to insult any one - any one from the left anti Trump feel free to hit this post up and Lay It out . I'd sure like to hear your take .
I feel scrap will have no harm and will increase in value as is will still be needed as usual over seas . But I feel more will be use here in America based on re-opening blast furnace so price should go up

America's last keg maker, American Keg Co. of Pottstown, may get tapped out by new tariffs - Philly

"The newly enacted taxes will not apply to finished steel products produced outside the U.S., Czachor said. And that’s where he sees the real trouble. Imported kegs, tools, and heavy equipment are not subject to the new tariffs.

“Downstream imported products, made outside of the U.S., that use a lot of steel, will still be priced cheaply,” he said. “If the Chinese make lockers for a high school, people can import them with no tariff. The imported kegs will still come in using low-cost steel.”

Hedges and speculation at this point, time will tell what the true effect will be. But yeah, their not painting an optimistic view.

It seems to me these tariffs will not even the playing field as we can't produce enough metals to cover a completive pricing
America with re-elections a complete change occurs views to the Left , views to the Right
If RLS0812
is correct , I can see that there will not be agreement's for
re building industries that will last 25 years

The progressive movement??? Conservatives are the free traders that expanded globalism and opened up markets to China. That's were the smelters went.
