"...the other day I read about how the German company ThyssenKrupp was constructing a 4 Billion dollar plant in Alabama. "

The good part...most of the dirty work, smelting, etc. will be done in Brazil and the 'clean' bulk metal will be shipped across the Gulf Of Mexico to Mobile.

So I guess that will employ some dock workers in Mobile too (although I can’t say that I’m a longshoreman’s union fan -— but their kids need braces too).

Thanks for posting the details on the deal. I read a little blurb about it on Instapundit the other day, but I had not seen the numbers involved.

Gotta love it. Heavy, relatively clean industry.
