Japan is one of our closest strategic allies, and at any rate Nippon isn't going to shutter steel plants in Pennsylvania and ship them to Japan.
Nippon is the only steel company in the world with the financial capacity to revive US production and secure US jobs. I can only guess that the unions (and the governor) are playing political chicken to get Nippon to sweeten the deal.
Both presidential candidates should keep out of this. (Full disclosure: I'm long X shares and options.)
Manufacturing steel requires ENERGY and LOTS OF IT.
Windmills & solar panels ain’t gonna cut it..........
“Nippon isn’t going to shutter steel plants in Pennsylvania and ship them to Japan.”
Just about every trick in the book has been attempted in the effort to preserve American heavy industry, from selling off to foreign companies to employee ownership. Everything has failed, except the ONE SOLUTION to the problem that has the best chance of working, jettisoning the unions, which, sadly, will likely never be done.
Kamala wouldn’t understand that. She’s full of ‘magical thinking’ about almost everything.
Harris:
“Nippon ain’t chinese.”
/s
“Allow me to clarify my opposition about the clarification I oppose.”
She had to check out the hacked Trump campaign documents that Iran sent her in order to pick Trump’s position on the issue and claim it as her own
Uh, klownmala and clarifies can not be in the same sentence. Just sayin’. 😂👍
Harris is signaling to Nippon that she hasn’t received her bribery check.
so from cowgirl to reverse cowgirl??
If she took Japanese $$, she might as well cut & run because she’d be done.
The local governments (city, county, etc) played this game and lost before. Trump got US Steel to do a billion dollar investment in the Pittsburgh area. The local governments wasted time, tried to squeeze more money - the usual nonsense. US Steel finally had enough cancelled the plans…..did a $1.5B investment in Arkansas instead.
Japan was our “ally” in the early 1920s.
What is ‘U1’?
There is a special IC called the Apple U1:
What is Apple U1 Chip?
U1 is a chip-based technology developed by Apple, specifically designed for Ultra-Wideband (UWB) communication. UWB is a short-range radio technology that enables accurate distance measurement and location tracking between devices with the U1 chip.
Key Features:
Location Accuracy: U1 uses high-frequency, low-range radio signals and a time-of-flight system to quickly locate other U1-enabled devices, providing a more accurate positioning than traditional GPS or Bluetooth.
Proximity Detection: The U1 chip can detect the proximity of other U1-enabled devices, allowing for features like:
AirDrop file sharing by pointing one phone at another.
Precise directions to lost items with AirTags.
Seamless music transfer between iPhone and HomePod Mini.
Integration: U1 is integrated into various Apple devices, including:
iPhone 11 and newer (except iPhone SE series).
Apple Watch Series 6 and newer.
AirTags.
HomePod Mini.
Nearby Interactions: The U1 chip enables Apple’s Nearby Interactions feature, allowing devices to communicate with each other and trigger actions without the need for manual setup or pairing. This technology has potential applications in smart home automation, simplifying the connection of devices and reducing unintended triggers.
In summary, U1 is Apple’s Ultra-Wideband technology, enabling accurate location tracking, proximity detection, and seamless interactions between compatible devices.
Happy to answer.
In the context of “America for sale”, U1 refers to the Uranium One sale to Russia (the ostensible proxy for Iran...).
American (on CONUS) Uranium mining concern.
Arranged by HRC and approved by greenie, Lurch.
Timeline may be wrong
May have been both arranged/approved by HRC
There is a difference between being against this as a policy and being against it as a political reaction. Policy wise: Is there a reason to ensure that there is a strong steel manufacturing base in the country, absolutely. What you do to ensure that happens is critical. Harris and Bidem created an environment that does not allow for a steel manufacturing company to thrive in America. Based on that environment the company was sold and after thoae facts were enshrined Harris and Biden came out against the same that they themselves made inevitable.
Kamala Harris clarifies her opposition to a U.S. Steel sale to Japan’s Nippon.
Because we still have plastic................................
WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE TELLS HER THAT ONLY FOSSIL FUELS CAN PRODUCE THE TEMPS REQUIRED TO MAKE STEEL......
