I agree that the ITC tariff study was very much on the fence about the Steeel tariffs I have stated that repeatedly based upon the executive study. The study against tariffs was funded by the Steel Consumers. My take on teh ITC study of teh Steel Tariffs is as follows from my previous post:

The USITC study of the effect of the 2001 steel tariffs on Steel Consumers shows that the overall net cost/benefit may be either positive or negative so a reasonable conclusion is this tariff on net can neither be declared helpful or harmful based on this study at this time.

I have at other times posted a different study of the China trade that shows tariffs have a net benefit to the US economy. I have done this on other threads and called your attention to it before. It is not coming up this AM but when it does again I will repost this.

IF you insist on misrepresenting what I have posted then I will have to start treating you like as I would any other troll who lies intentionally. For this post I will presume that your mistake was innocent. Now once more I have reperatedly in teh past posted a study of the China trade showing that tariffs proved a net benefit to the USA. Please come up with some evidence if you have any.

What evidence do you need? And under which of your two standards will it fall? The one you reserve for yourself, or the one you apply to others? What other unreasonable restrictions will you place-upon it so that it may be dismissed? Will it be subject to your "impossible to isolate" standard, or not? Can't I simply say that I posted it somewhere else, as you do?

Dispense with your idle threats, friend. Or proceed with them. Your choice. I couldn't give a darn whether you think that people who disagree with you are liars, or Marxists, or both.
