“What has it done for American steel users?”

It allows them to import bridges from China. Made exporting all those dollars a lot easier too. Not to mention the jobs, the technology, and the steel mills.

Importing cheaper goods? That’s awful!
The government must step in, right now.
Tell Obama how he can make it better.

--proving America has no problem with exports, it's the imports we need more of. 

If only we were allowed to import as many jobs, dollars, and techs as we exported then we'd be so much better off.  We need to dismantle our tariff barriers to allow these imports again even if we have to put up with crying protectionists complaining about all the job and dollar dumping that may bankrupt all our domestic producers.   Let's face it, these days Americans consume much more dollars, technology and jobs than can be produced locally.
