"foriegn dumping" of steel.. is that what you call "trade" when you don't like it?.. the US parades all over the world preaching free trade until it applies to them... first lamb now steel.. take your own medicine like men instead of crybabies.

Ummm, with all due respect, GO FUCK YOURSELF!

The bottome line is that your countries government subsidises your steel industry with your tax dollars, thereby making the playing field uneven.
Now in order to level the playing field we could
A)subisdize our own steel industry
or
B)impose a tarriff on foreign steel

We chose B, and now the playing field IS EVEN, and you're whining that it isn't fair.

If every country in the world had to open their markets to American goods the way American markets are open to theirs, we would be even richer than we already are and all of you know it.
