FJB and his band of Commie Rats will just nationalize the plants and keep them running.

You can’t send our energy prices through the roof when you don’t have any protective tariffs.
Not that it was a good idea in the first place.

Smelting Aluminum requires lots of energy. US had an advantage over cheap labor countries with cheap energy prices. That advantage is now gone.

Yawn...
Just another one of those usual communist success stories...
More proof that:
The only good communists are dead communists...
To: BipolarBob

Alcoa, Tennessee is near TVA hydroelectric plants for a reason.
To: packagingguy
Wonder what that will do for scrap aluminum prices which is cheaper to reuse that new stuff.
To: DFG
At this rate we will have progressed straight back to the freaking stone age within a year.
