    As far as the US goes - we have almost NO steel industry left. There are 7 steel smelters left in this country as of 2013 [*1]. Our scrap gets bundled into bails and shipped off to another country to be turned into raw stock, which is shipped off to some were else to be turned into consumables which are than imported back to the US.
    Here in Indiana they keep popping up these mini-mills, and growing so I don't think their going away soon.
