“If our furniture factory could afford 25% more expensive steel, they would already have been buying US steel and aluminum. “
The increase is only on imports!
This kind of lying is just pathetic.

But don’t accuse me of lying.

The buyer still is forced to pay the higher (US) price... and pass the increase on to the consumer.
