One of the aspects of the destruction of good paying jobs in the USA was the loss of Steel made in the USA. The other imported steel was a poor quality.
Basically, if a consumer could purchase a Japanese automobile make with Japanese steel then why pay more for a car made in the USA if they were getting the same product.
American made steel was the best in the world. There was talk at the time about our military and being able to build what we needed, when we needed it. As a matter of fact, when the USA entered WWII it was American Steel and the auto industry that tooled up the country to win the war. With the loss of American made steel the USA was risk. It should never happen again. I had no idea Romney was behind that. He didn't care about the auto industry in the USA or our military. Just that simple.
If Romney would risk the security of the USA then, he'd do it again, without a second thought.
