Bush’s imposition of tariffs on imported steel saved the Weirton plant from closure. Although the decision outraged European exporters and briefly tested Bush’s relationship with Tony Blair, American steelmakers were spared competition for 20 crucial months.
Gee, I wonder how that will play in other towns which still rely on the steel industry... hmm... and are they in, oh, I dunno, say, Pennsylvania? :')
