Tell the South Koreans to defend their own country. After all, they have a lot of money there since the entire American steel industry has basically moved there over the last half decade or so.
Is that where steel went, thought it was China.
Steel,auto, textiles,clothes etc, the industries that made us great...was it the unions or greedy owners?....pisses me off no end when i think of back in PA..we had steel factory and circle W providing jobs for the area..mile long W plant gone long ago..auto parts plant and china dishware plant gone..
and here in VA small community, two textile plants,rubber plant, furniture plant and other small business gone with the wind..
