I struggle to see how taxing Chinese imported steel won’t increase orders for South American steel?
Looks like we already get quite a bit from these sources.

We’re taxing ALL steel. The tariff applies to all imports not just China.
It’s called reciprocal trade. We tax other countries the same way they tax us.
Why????
Because if we do not the business moves to the country with the higher tariff.
Why would a business do that?
Answer: Because that way they can sell BOTH to China and the United States for free.
If they stay in the United States and try to sell to China they are TAXED THROUGH TARIFFS. On top of that China will manipulate their currency if we sell too much to them to protect their business.
Wake up China has been in a trade war with the United States for almost 20 years. The United States is being deindustrialized.
Rigged ONE WAY TRADE that the Globalists loves created massive trade deficits, massive job loss, weakening of U.S. dollar, more pollution (factories in countries w/less regulation), less savings, less investment in America, etc. over the last 20 years.
We were a super power with tariffs before these RIGGED ONE WAY TRADE SCAMS.
Reciprocal trade is the only way to do thinks and it’s fair.
Why is this so hard to figure out???
