Agreed. Now, what would that impact be?

Devastating. Steel is used thoughout our economy, whether for manufacturing or construction.

Yeah and you know how hard it would be for us to start producing steel again.

Very difficult. Steel production requires a complex infrastructure of expertise and supply lines for raw materials, equipment, etc. etc. It is also a very capital intensive industry that would require enormous investment to resurrect if allowed to collapse.
